Check out: New PhenObs paper published in ‘Basic and Applied Ecology’. We used historical data from Vienna and recently collected data from PhenObs to investigate whether phenological changes due to climate change (temporal scale) are also reflected on a spatial scale.

It was a wonderful conference with many great scientists from all over the world. The hospitality in Brazil was simply heart-warming 🇧🇷🌻.

#phenology #networking #conferenc
We were represented at Pheno2025 conference (@biometeorology.bsky.social) in 🇧🇷 for the last 5 days. The days were full of exciting presentations and intensive exchange about phenological research. We look forward to deepening the collaborations we made in the future👍🌍.

In the tropical rainforest of Brazil 🦥🌴 and at the beach of Rio de Janeiro🏖️, on the way to the Pheno2025 conference in Sao Pedro. I am looking forward to meeting a wide range of experts in phenological research there. The poster illustrating the work of @phenobs.bsky.social of course joined 😊

PhenObs data were used for a paper recently published in Global Ecology and Biogeography.

Observations in botanical gardens offer a unique opportunity to compare phenological patterns of native and non-native species 🌸🍀.

During hot summer days in Germany, there is nothing better than collecting trait data for the @phenobs.bsky.social project in the Alps at Davos🍀🌱📏⛰️.

So happy that Junhee @junhee-jung.bsky.social defended his thesis @unituebingen.bsky.social! Note the knitted DNA tie, the discarded (a.k.a. garbage can) sequences on the hat, and the PhD-themed cookies. Niek @plantevoeco.bsky.social, Eric Kemen and Kyle @kylemojo.bsky.social asked great questions!

We just finished the PhenObs Spring Symposium. In six very different presentations, colleagues from all over Europe talked about how botanical gardens can be used for ecological research🌸🧪🐌.
Conclusion: Botanical gardens are a fascinating research platforms👍.

🌿A new study in @newphyt.bsky.social finds that 27% of naturalised plants are threatened in their native range, revealing a conservation dilemma. As species distributions shift, conservation policies may need to evolve. #iDivResearch www.idiv.de/should-we-pr...
Should we protect non-native species? A new study says maybe | iDiv
What happens when plants thrive outside their native range but struggle in their original habitat? A new study puts numbers to a growing conservation dilemma.

Collagues recently published a "Viewpoint" article on the possible usages of conservation seed banks in the @newphyt.bsky.social .

A very exciting article and great to see that resurrection ecology is still a relevant🌱.

I'm looking forward to conduct this research project investigating belowground phenology of herbaceous species👍🏼🌻. It is great that the the @idiv-research.bsky.social offers different funding oppertunities for young scientists😊

#botanicalgardens #phenology #research
It is time to go "belowground" and starting monitoring of root phenology of herbaceous plant🌻. Thanks to funding by the @idiv-research.bsky.social we could set-up a study site with minirhizotrons at the botanical garden of Jena👍🏼.
