How do ecosystems function and change, and how will they continue to change in the future? | The latest research from the Oxford Ecosystems Programme, Environmental Change Institute, University of Oxford
https://www.oxfordecosystems.org
This is an exciting week for our research programme, starting with @ymalhi.bsky.social sharing his thoughts and research on #ecosystemchange and #naturerecovery with the University of Barcelona. Stay tuned… we have more to come today!

An ancient yew tree in Scotland that is half the age of the Holocene has caught our attention. What a privilege to be in the presence of one of the oldest trees in Europe. @ymalhi.bsky.social explains the significance of this giant. @naturerecovery.bsky.social @ecioxford.bsky.social

The more you look, the more you see! We love this visual diary from the Reimagining Nature Finance workshop by @naturerecovery.bsky.social hosted in Wytham Woods last week. My favourite is, “accelerate new approaches that transcend system boundaries”. We’ll share more on this in the coming days.

Another great day at #ATBC2025! Dr Sruthi Krishna Moorthy showed how to harness large language models for ecology and conservation and Dr David Bauman @davbauman.bsky.social presented environmental drivers of spatial patterns in tree mortality across the tropics and Sruthi. Fascinating talks!

Our team is at #ATBC2025 where presentations, networking and exploring Oaxaca and its surrounding beauty are in full swing! Catch them to chat tropical forests and cerrados, plant functional traits, drones, and tree ecophysiology 🌱 or simply to say hi 👋🏼 @jeaggu.bsky.social @ecioxford.bsky.social

May Morning is one of Oxford’s busiest celebrations! The morning starts with Magdalen College Choir singing a hymn and madrigal to welcome in summer 🌸 this is followed by festivities in the streets with lots of Morris dancing and music. We went out to celebrate!

Last week Yadvinder, Sandra Díaz, Brian Enquist, Cecilia Chavana, and Mat Disney were guided by local conservation hero, Filipe Salbany, through the ancient oaks of Blenheim. A moment to be reminded of the threads connecting ecosystems, science, and stewardship 🌳 @naturerecovery.bsky.social

Last week @ymalhi.bsky.social gave an insightful talk at #StellenboschUniversity on the functioning of the natural world and human influence on this world through the concept of metabolism. We also got to see a fun reunion with Ecosystems alum Anabelle Cardoso!

We had such fun yesterday in the 'Dance mirrors nature: an Indian dance workshop' organised by Ecosystems DPhil student, @tanayanair.bsky.social and Oxford School of Global and Area Studies' MPhil student Oonmona Das @oxfordgeography.bsky.social @ecioxford.bsky.social

Congratulations to Dr Carlota Segura Garcia for passing her DPhil viva examination at @ox.ac.uk yesterday! Carlota researched the patterns of fire in the Brazilian Cerrado and how these are being changed by anthropogenic processes. Read one of her DPhil papers: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Join us this morning as @ymalhi.bsky.social and @nickajgraham.bsky.social chair a jam-packed session on ecological flows and fluxes across the land-sea interface at #BES2024 @britishecolsoc.bsky.social
December 12, 2024 at 8:15 AM
We end off day 1 of @britishecolsoc.bsky.social #BES2024 with a talk by Ecosystems’ DPhil student Francisco (Paco) Navarro Rosales @navarrosales.bsky.social on his research on fire impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes and the productivity of Brazilian Cerrado. Don’t miss this interesting talk!
December 11, 2024 at 3:43 PM
At the same time as Yadvinder’s talk, Ecosystems’ DPhil student Jed Soleiman will be sharing results from his research on soil microbial changes after rewinding a British wildland. This is set to be an incredibly interesting talk, so make sure to join #BES2024 @jedsol.bsky.social

This morning at #BES2024 Yadvinder Malhi @ymalhi.bsky.social is speaking about parachute science in the tropics. He shows evidence for increased participation of local authors in papers produced in the tropics and how some regions are still lagging behind on this transformation. Don't miss this!
December 11, 2024 at 9:59 AM
We are headed to @britishecolsoc.bsky.social Annual Meeting 2024! Look out for our team of Ecosystems researchers who will be giving some fascinating talks throughout the week, starting with two talks tomorrow by Prof. Yadvinder Malhi @ymalhi.bsky.social and Jed Soleiman @jedsol.bsky.social
December 10, 2024 at 1:47 PM
Join us tomorrow, either at @oxfordgeography.bsky.social or online, as we hear from an expert panel on how we can foster more collaborative and integrated solutions for tackling climate and biodiversity issues? @naturerecovery.bsky.social
