Do ForestEurope indicators work for biodiversity? We tested them against field-sampled multi-taxon data (a lot of them!) and only some of them moderately relate to species richness! Read the recent article led by YoanPaillet Time for a data-driven revision!

Warming up, just not too hard, can help you survive an intense workout. In a new study led by Xinru Li, we found that "priming" - sub-lethal exposure to heat stress - can also help coral reefs survive heat provided the heat waves are not too severe.

πŸ’‘ Tip to see all posts in the Global Ecology feed 🌐 Go to your Bluesky app settings βš™οΈ, set β€œContent Languages” to β€œAll languages” by unticking all named languages. Otherwise, posts (even in English) from users with a different "Primary Language" won't appear. ✨ This actually applies to all feeds!
