The rise of microclimate data may have opened Pandora’s box. Gone are the days of simple bioclimatic variables — now heads spin trying to summarize these timeseries.

Would you expect non-native plant species to make mountain floras more diverse (more heterogeneous) or less so (more homogenised)?
Find the answer in my latest blog, where I dive into a new global paper from the Mountain Invasion Research Network:

We tested how homogenisation (ecosystems becoming more alike through invasions) changes with scale.
Global = clear pattern
Local = not so simple

As the universities' longest collaboration with Chile, we (and especially @anibalpauchard.bsky.social got to highlight our long-standing collaboration with @iebchile.bsky.social on (micro)climate, invasive species, and biodiversity!

We have started an #EcoFracNet site in the Fochteloerveen, one of the Netherlands' last remaining active raised bogs and a landscape that truly absorbs you.
Throwback photo shoot from end of April, when summer was still far away :

Nearly 400 first-year biology students at Utrecht University recorded 1100+ species on campus in just one month.
A hands-on crash course in ecology, conservation & fieldwork — and yes, it was a lot of fun.
