Rodents live among us, and share many of our diseases. Researchers at @umnCVM and @umncbs teamed up with @CedarCreekESR, @ItascaBio, and @BellMuseum to determine how a mouse’s environment might change the pathogens they carry. Read more: https://t.co/r2ngnJwUQF

More states and private landowners recognize the importance of prescribed burns to improve forest health and reduce the severity of wildfires, but the lack of firefighters trained to ignite and...

Nothing lasts forever: Dominant species are slower to decline in response to fertilization & herbivore exclusion when they start with higher initial cover👇 @nutnetglobal @borerlab

The ability of plant species to maintain dominance following environmental perturbations can govern further changes in ecosystem functions. The authors detail the conditions that promote the mainte...

Our new @NatureClimate paper shows where and why fire changes soil carbon and demonstrates sensitivity rises with aridity. The carbon sequestration potential in savanna soils speaks to the need for their preservation, and not their replacement by forests.

A new study shows that #Soil #Carbon content is positively related with plant diversity in global @NutNetGlobal grassland sites, particularly strongly in warm & arid climates. Plant diversity is related to #SoilCarbon via the quality of organic matter.

Drier savannas, grasslands store more climate-buffering carbon than previously believed

Savannas and grasslands in drier climates around the world store more heat-trapping carbon than scientists thought they did and are helping to slow the rate of climate warming, according to a new...

Mapping tools can protect forests from devastating disease says @umncbs prof Cavender-Bares whose #UMNResearch team is developing spatially explicit disease maps to help park managers know where to treat sick trees to prevent disease spread. @UMNMITPPC

🌱Plant colonists that reach high abundance may be a further threat to resident #plant diversity in secondary #grasslands recovering from a recent history of #agriculture
@JaneCatford @GDavidTilman @HarryShepherd_ @kcl_pebes @kclgeography @CedarCreekESR

These findings point to the importance of resource availability and competition on plant colonisation and colonist impacts on residents. Although colonisation is potentially a source of biodiversity...
