Key @BioGeoMacro paper on our research on functional island biogeography published today @nature
Hot off the press @nature: Assembly of functional diversity in an oceanic island flora Team effort led by @Paola_barbarbo We present a detailed analysis of plant functional traits & diversity of an entire oceanic flora, #Tenerife, Canary Islands. https://t.co/INM53KC7Qx 1/n

Pressemitteilung zu unserer aktuellen @NatureEcoEvo Studie zum Einfluss von #Klimawandel auf Ökosysteme: Kernergebnis: 33-68% d. Landoberfläche werden bis 2070 eine signifikante Veränderung des Phytoklimas - also Art und Weise wie Klima Vegetation beeinflusst - erfahren.
Wie reagieren Pflanzen auf klimatische Veränderungen? Das analysierten Forschende bei über 135.000 Arten – mit Daten von @BioGeoMacro. Sie liefern damit einen neuen Ansatz zur Bewertung von Klimawandel-Risiken: https://t.co/LCQQ5mvYWB. Studie: https://t.co/8APjOdfshd

It is nearly impossible for us to fathom how quickly species are disappearing, @carlsafina said. “And so the endeavour of stopping this crisis becomes more of a religious kind of experience than a scientific one, in a sense, more moral than practical.”

Hawaii hardest hit by loss of eight birds, with an Ohio catfish, a Pacific fruit bat and eight freshwater mussels also disappearing

Very excited that our @BiodiversaPlus project proposal BioMonI - Biodiversity monitoring of island ecosystems got funded! 🎆 Involving great partners from Canary Islands, Azores, La Reunion, Austria, Switzerland and Germany. Stay tuned for updates!
🚀#BiodiversityMonitoring Boost: 33 #Research Projects Funded We launched the #BiodivMon call in Sept 2022, seeking innovative 3-year projects for transnational biodiversity monitoring. After a meticulous evaluation, we're thrilled to announce the selection of 33 projects. 🧵1/3

Happy to be part of this new paper led by Rachel Holmes. Detailed analyses of native and Anthropocene floras incl 31,580 plant spp provide strong evidence how humans cause breakdown of biogeogr barriers and taxonomic homogenization. #OpenAccess paper here: https://t.co/XizA5hThV6

Aim Worldwide, floras are becoming homogenized at global scales, but regional patterns vary. Here, we present the first assessment for the Malesian phytogeographical region in terms of the timing...
