Viruses aren't just killers! They can drive a « shunt » in the ocean, creating a self-regulating cycle of nutrient recycling.
👉 N.E. Gilbert et al. Jan 2025 in @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social
doi.org/10.1101/2025...
🔑 This boosts phytoplankton & is key to maintaining oxygen levels!

Boreal forests are on the edge of a tipping point!
👉 by R. Rotbarth et al., Jan 2025 in @pnas.org
🔑 Boreal forests might shift to an open state with just 30-50% tree cover. This profound shift will disrupt #Gaia balance, altering fire regimes, carbon storage, and global climate regulation!
