170 Wissenschaftler:innen fordern auf WWF Austria-Initiative ein Einlenken der Bundesländer beim EU-Renaturierungsgesetz: Österreich kann zum Retter oder zum Totengräber einer gemeinsamen europäischen Antwort auf die Klima- & Biodiversitätskrise werden. #zib2 #restorenature

Which tree species to plant, e.g. after large disturbances? They should do well under current climate AND be robust to future climate change. This causes a considerable bottleneck for forest management, we find in a new paper in NatureEcoEvo. A thread… 🧵nature.com/articles/s4155…

So well done, Janine! Big congrats for receiving the prestigious Stefan Gergely Prize of the #ÖAW for your PhD. A honour to have supervised your work.

The Invasive Species Collaborative @VT is thrilled to announce an invasive species-based cluster hire Virginia Tech for 7 new tenure track faculty!

We are seeking individuals who possess the skills to bridge disciplinary divides, drive innovative solutions, and engage in team science. 🧵

No, there is no 'systematic and persistent bias in invasion science'; but there is a worrying tendency to
publish opinions and flawed studies to discredit invasion scientists

📢 BREAKING NEWS 📢

Now live: Our new interactive tool to explore the ipbes #InvasiveAlienSpecies Report.

A fresh new way to engage with the data and dive deeper into the findings here.⬇️

ipbes.net/ias/learning

Two year ago we resurveyed 200 vegetation plots from the 80's across the Sancy Mountain with my former University professor Richard Michalet and my colleague Julien Pottier from INRAE UREP and the #CBNMC

The first results are here:

Very nice field work!

News! I am notified by Conservation Letters that our paper is #TopCitedArticle (top 10) in the journal:
'How can the EU's CAP help halt biodiversity loss? Recommendations by over 300 experts'. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Sad timing, as the EU goes exactly now against these recommendations.

100s of leading experts, 1000s of sources & years of time invested...ever wonder how an ipbes assessment really works?

Don't miss this #BehindTheScenes look at the #InvasiveAlienSpecies Report & how it was carried out!

Great insights from Tanara Renard📹

Love to see the interactive platform out. Such a cool was to explore the key messages of the ipbes #iasassessment

An exciting new way to share/access IPBES key messages and data - take a moment to visually explore the #InvasiveAlienSpecies Report.

Heyho, wichtig für alle Wasserflaschen-Freaks: Nestlé muss gerade einräumen, dass einige französischen Quellen für Traditionsflaschen wie Perrier nicht mehr rein oder versiegt sind – und aufwändig gefiltert werden müssen. Ratet mal, woran das liegt? 1/2
