📢 New paper published!
“Natural regeneration of Norway spruce under pioneer trees outperforms conventional reclamation on post-mining sites” 🌱
🚜Reclamation restarts the soil ‘clock,’ undoing progress from succession. Let nature tick ⏳ and you get better growing spruce 🌲!

A really cool new study on the impact of climate activism has just dropped! Some highlights:
1) "There is strong evidence that climate activism shifts public opinion and media coverage in a pro-climate direction, but this varies by context and the tactics employed."

Longer dry & rainy periods are reshaping our soils! 🌱💧 A 16-month study shows that persistent #precipitation regimes degrade #soil by reducing stability, water retention & infiltration—potentially worsening #climate change impacts on #grasslands.

Sometimes I wish I could bury my whole head in it, but turns out this only works for ostriches, more specifically, only the cartoon ones.
