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...

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.

A postdoctoral position in ecology is available in David Armitageβs research group at OIST (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology) in Okinawa, Japan, with a flexible start date, ideally in early...
Spent a wonderful time in Shiretoko National Park conducting fieldwork alongside great people.
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.

New paper on metacommunity dynamics out! ππ 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. ππ
