Spent a wonderful time in Shiretoko National Park conducting fieldwork alongside great people.
I'm looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our group in Okinawa, Japan later this year/early next year.
Area of research is wide open, and creative/unconventional projects are encouraged. Together, let's make ecology less of a mess! 📈📈📈

This will help us explore how people experience forest biodiversity!
Please share on 🦋 & tag @biodiful.bsky.social to reach more participants 🙏💚

Bridging in situ experiments, metacommunity theory, and landscape-scale implementation to understand how spatial heterogeneity shapes biodiversity.

Paper published, led by Forest Isbell.
We developed a new theoretical framework to predict how temporal stability and resilience emerge from the combined effects of resistance and recovery.

New paper on metacommunity dynamics out! 📃🍁 Led by Oliver Mitesser we show that habitat heterogeneity shifts communities from patch-dynamics toward mass effects and species sorting using beetles as focal taxon. 🐞😍

As climate and disturbance regimes change, forest reorganization is key to maintain the forest carbon sink. Great new work led by @christinadollinger.bsky.social w/ @monicagturner.bsky.social, @akkym.bsky.social and many others. dx.doi.org/10.1029/2025...
I was in #Shiretoko NP for discussing science-driven ecosystem restoration. Many ECRs have contributed by collecting data and supporting the project. Nurturing both trees and people is essential for forest restoration, which can only be achieved through sustained long-term efforts.
A postdoctoral position in ecology is available in David Armitage’s research group at OIST (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology) in Okinawa, Japan, with a flexible start date, ideally in early...

New predictions for how temporal stability and resilience depend on their resistance and recovery components are explored.
