🌿What role will #rewilding play in implementing the new #EU #NatureRestorationLaw? 🇪🇺. We posed this and other questions to Gert-Jan Nabuurs, project partner in WILDCARD and @WUR Professor of European Forest Resources. Check out his answers➡️

#MeetOurExperts! Did you know that land abandonment is increasing in parts of Europe, making space for #forest regrowth, wild plants and animals?. Pavel Šamonil is leading our work to assess the effects of #rewilding on abandoned farmland🌱.➡️

🤿 This #BiodiversityDay, join us for a dive under the surface to explore the deep complexities of #rewilding!. 🌱In this new blog post, we explore different pathways to rewilding and how they build on various ideas of human-nature relationships. ➡️

📜New paper! Comparing #carbon monitoring approaches in old-growth #forests. 🌳Our new study shows that the largest EU forest carbon sinks are in the Dinaric Alps and a few large trees (5%) concentrate a high amount of carbon stock (36%) @uniud @unito. 🔗

Are you looking for a PhD or Postdoc position on the topic of #rewilding? 🧑‍🎓. If so, check out our two new openings, the first on quantifying #carbon trajectories & #biodiversity, and the second on #soil microbial #ecology!. ▶️

Guess what we're doing in these impressive old-growth forests❔. 🔹Thanks to the University of Sarajevo, we're selecting sites in 2 mixed forests where no harvests took place since 1878!. ⚖️ They can serve as benchmarks for understanding long-term #carbon & #biodiversity dynamics

Leaving #forests unmanaged and allowing them to regenerate on their own accord is a #rewilding approach known as proforestation🌲. Researcher Lucia Seebach is leading our work to assess its effects on the #climate and forest #Biodiversity! 🪲. 👉
