🌸Plant diversity dynamics over space and time in a warming Arctic 🌸
Our new study @nature.com analysed plant diversity change in >2000 tundra plots over 4 decades. We found that plants changed unevenly, mostly driven by warming and biotic interactions.

Which paleoclimate dataset do you use for your research?
In my latest research, I compared temperature estimates from five well-known paleoclimate datasets to proxy data and found that inter-dataset variability can strongly affect temperature-delimited reconstructions. 🧵

📢 Viewpoint in New Phyt. on polyploid establishment!
Key take-homes🧵
1. In contrast to earlier hypotheses that pollinators can help new polyploids establish, we suggest that pollinators mainly prevent polyploid establishment because outcrossing increases the strength of minority cytotype exclusion.

PhD opportunity: Study how climate variability shapes species’ ranges in mountain ecosystems worldwide via data analysis 🌍 Fully funded 3-yr. Deadline Oct 06 2025. bit.ly/465taot #PhD #GlobalChangeEcology
Many downscaled #paleoclimate datasets aren’t suited for capturing #temperatures during the Last Glacial Maximum in #mountains. Resolution too coarse for complex terrain. Use with caution ⚠️

Our new review is finally out! 🌿 I’m especially excited because this is the first chapter of my PhD!
Have a read to see what shapes the range limits of alpine plants besides freezing temperatures ❄️

This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperat...
