I’m so proud to work with the incredible @YibiaoZ on the his global analysis on alternative stable states in forest types. Generating a more mechanistic understanding of forest trait distributions.

ChatGPT can be such a powerful tool for so many parts of the scientific process. But only if we use it correctly!. Check out our guiding principles for how to get it right:

Massive new @NatureGeosci paper led by Han Hu & Yuting Liang. We know that warming is increasing carbon emissions from global wetlands. But it is also shifting those emissions to a greater proportion of CH4. Great collaboration @ManuDelBaq and many others

Easy highlight of #COP was meeting these guys from Sebrae, who are the stewards of a massive region of Brazilian rainforest. They loved discovering others like them on @restor_eco. They have saved their project on so go find and fund them ASAP!”

At every instant, somewhere is the most beautiful place on earth. For a few moments today I think Zurich could have made that claim.

Finally, appreciation for the importance of natural forest protection seems to have ripened at COP this year. We have always depended on nature for our survival. Now we also need them to help stabilise our climate. We need emissions cuts AND nature!.

Total megafauna abundance, biomass, and energy turnover decreased by 92–95% over the past 50,000 years, implying major human-driven ecosystem restructuring at a global scale!. That’s a striking finding by @juraj_bergman, @JCSvenning and team.
