Most (>80%) of #forest #plant species in Europe require medium to high light & are associated to grazed #woodland - see our analysis in @natplants.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41... 2☀️🪻🌼🌿 An example is Early-Purple #Orchid, here seen in an ancient woodland patch close to where we live 🙂

It's been a while since I last shared the results of my PhD thesis on #plant #diversity in #restored #wetlands. Yesterday, I had the chance to present it to representatives of Danish municipalities working with streams and wetlands 🌱💦🐄

We report today on the paradigm shift from Nature as a machine needing frequent tending to Nature as wild ecosystems with natural processes.

From a rewilding perspective it is time to consider rewilding cattle and horses in Europe. Traditional management has failed.

Forskere om konflikten mellem rewilding og naturpleje: Vi står midt i et paradigmeskifte
Det er vores opfattelse, at biodiversitetstabet kun kan standses og vendes med en genopretning af de naturlige processer i økosystemet – særligt de som er knyttet til store planteædere, skriver Camill...

Science takes time - a lot of time. Time that is more and more difficult to make available because of increased workloads. Time that exceeds the temporary contracts of postdocs and PhDs.

I'll illustrate this using our paper published in Nature yesterday. 🧵 (1/x)

Soils from 30 grasslands across Europe were subjected to 4 contrasting extreme climatic events under drought, flood, freezing and heat conditions, with the results suggesting that soil microbiomes fro...

Very useful guidelines for restoration of wetlands and rivers 👍
"plan restoration areas near colonisation sources of the target biota, restore hydrology to near-natural conditions, discontinue nutrient loads from surrounding arable land and restore near-natural grazing regimes."
