Very excited to give a talk at Misión Biolóxica de Galicia (MBG-CSIC) in Pontevedra, Spain next week!
Thanks to @marsobral.bsky.social and @cpcarmona.bsky.social for the invitation and organization!

Check out the #OpenAccess study here, in our journal "Ecological Monographs": doi.org/10.1002/ecm....
May cover reveal for "Ecological Monographs"! Meet the wasp spider—bold stripes and a big climate story. New research shows its rapid northward spread is fueled by genetic change + plasticity, helping offspring thrive in colder temps

Excited to share our new paper on how tree community resource economics shape soil food web multifunctionality across European forests! 🌲🌍 We quantified how energy flows through microbes, fungi, detritivores, herbivores and predators beneath the forest floor. rdcu.be/fhmF2
As we pump more CO2 into the atmosphere our food supply becomes more impoverished. This Nutrient Dilution is a global problem for every organism that eats plants, or eats things that eats plants. IOW pretty much all life on Earth. bsky.app/profile/mike...

Nature - Plant community properties affect ecosystem functioning via energy fluxes in food webs, with the leaf and root resource economics of dominant tree species controlling soil food web...
Some army ants are extremely polymorphic. This photo shows a large soldier and a small regular worker of Eciton hamatum. If you saw them separately, you wouldn’t even think they belong to the same species. You might also notice the light color of the ants - both are callows / newly eclosed.

Current Conservation (an Indian magazine) is inviting submissions to their annual CC Kids issue, with a special theme: BUGS! This includes anything six-legged, eight-legged, flying, wriggly, slimy, and formally known as an invertebrate. They publish great #sciart too! forms.gle/MsvYh368wUAh...

Surging concentrations of carbon in the atmosphere have produced potent changes in the way plants grow, draining the nutrients from food.
Nutrient Dilution and the Future of Herbivores: a short thread
The fossil fuel folks claimed that all the extra CO2 is great for plants. Indeed, plant mass has increased globally by about 30% in the past century.
But when you load a plant up the carbs, what happens to all its other nutrients?

🕷️ Die Wespenspinne hat ihr Verbreitungsgebiet in wenigen Jahrzehnten bis nach Nordeuropa erweitert. Eine Studie aus Greifswald zeigt: Dabei kam es zu schneller genetischer Differenzierung. Ergebnisse liefern wichtige Hinweise darauf, wie Arten auf den Klimawandel reagieren und sich anpassen können🔬
