Our paper is out! 🌳
We extend the functional group approach from urban forest diversification to temperate managed forests. Exciting times to see urban research stepping out of the understory and into the light.

A new fossil fungus discovered in Scotland shows evidence of plants and fungi sharing nutrients to survive on land.
The fossil, more than 400 million years old, offers hints about the origin of one of the greatest partnerships in the history of life on Earth.

Effective forest management in the context of climate change requires adaptive approaches. One key strategy is increasing diversity to mitigate the associated risks. This study employs a functional ap...
New online! Ecological insights from three decades of forest biodiversity experiments
Nature Reviews Biodiversity, Published online: 02 January 2026; doi:10.1038/s44358-025-00112-2Experiments manipulating tree species diversity and measuring effects on ecosystem function have been important tools for assessing how biodiverse forests can accumulate biomass, store carbon and help to meet climate goals. This Review summarizes key findings from global tree biodiversity experiments.
