How the small host the small: Cryptogam trait-mediated structuring of Antarctic microarthropod communities
Primary producers shape terrestrial biodiversity, yet, most research has focused on vascular plants and the role of cryptogams (mosses, lichens and algae) remains under-explored. Cryptogams dominate A...

Tiny but mighty mosses are so often overlooked but they are the reason northern #peatlands store so much carbon and persist as long-term carbon sinks.

Peatlands are resilient, but if we don't reduce industrial emissions, they may struggle.

🌏 Biodiversity loss has deep-rooted causes—from power imbalances to short-term priorities. These shape indirect & direct drivers like land/sea use change, exploitation & climate change.

Graphic from the IPBES #TransformativeChange Assessment ⤵️
An infographic showing the progression from underlying causes to environmental impacts across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems. The diagram flows left to right through three main sections: "UNDERLYING CAUSES" lists three core issues: Disconnection from and domination over nature and people Concentration of power and wealth Prioritization of short-term, individual and material gains "INDIRECT DRIVERS" includes four categories: Demographic and sociocultural Economic and technological Institutions and governance Conflicts and epidemics "DIRECT DRIVERS" shows relative impact percentages across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments, represented by horizontal bars with color-coded segments for: Land/sea use change (purple) Direct exploitation (light purple) Climate change (yellow) Pollution (gray) Invasive alien species (orange) Others (light gray) The right side features a circular illustration divided into terrestrial, freshwater, and marine zones with representative wildlife silhouettes.

Zweverig of zeldzaam is het niet, awe, wel intens of zelfs ontroerend. Wie dit gevoel van overrompeling door de natuur kent, is eerder geneigd haar te beschermen. ‘We moeten dus als de sodeju die verbondenheid herstellen.’ buff.ly/8VK3Nvo

BREAK! Wiersma’s stikstofplan kan leiden tot een uitbreiding van de veestapel met miljoenen extra dieren.

Dat blijkt uit een groot, nieuw onderzoek van NRC, Omroep Gelderland en Follow the Money.

Experts noemen het plan ‘een drama’.

www.ftm.nl/artikelen/ge...
Stikstof geen bezwaar meer: met Wiersma’s plan kan de uitstoot bijna verdubbelen
De versoepeling die landbouwminister Femke Wiersma voorstelt, betekent dat stikstof geen obstakel meer is voor boeren die willen uitbreiden. In theorie kan de uitstoot zelfs verdubbelen.

In this paper, we show that photobiont diversity increases as lichens age. Interestingly, as the thallus grows, autosporine algae become more prevalent at the expense of zoosporine algae, likely because the latter play a key role in lichen establishment. 1url.cz/@Proto

Soil biodiversity must be included in national biodiversity strategies and ecosystem restoration targets! Not just for the species, but also for the essential ecosystem services they provide: water, nutrient, climate regulation, food production, carbon storage, and protection of cultural heritage.

A quote from the article. Text reads: "The decline of soil biodiversity has visible and growing consequences. The science is clear, the frameworks exist, and the need for action is urgent."
