Call for a 2-year research position in Bologna! Deadline: Jan 8th 2024
Double great news: We had two papers published in the last month! One is the relationship between traits and drought resistance (ow.ly/8rUp50PP66t) and the other on the digitization a vegetation dataset from Patagonia (doi.org/10.1111/jvs.13…).
In the 1970s, a pioneer team of Argentinian, Chilean and UK biogeographers studied the vegetation of Patagonia along a 450 km transect. Now the data are available #OA and published in @JVSAVS, thanks to a collaboration with @sPlot_iDiv @CONICETDialoga onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jv…
Beautiful use of the @sPlot_iDiv vegetation database ⬇️ Vulnerability to embolism #P50 & root length in woody plants are independent or othogonal traits selected by aridity, seasonality & water table depth 🚨 Just published @NewPhyt 🤩 📖 ow.ly/8rUp50PP66t
Do you already know the open version of sPlot, sPlotOpen? If not, this is a good opportunity to check it out! We have released an updated version correcting some mismatches in species occurrences. You can access the version 2.0 of this open dataset at doi.org/10.25829/idiv.…
Nice to see Thore Engel’s paper published! It used the @sPlot_iDiv global vegetation plot data base and started during Thore’s MSc at the Graduate Program in Ecology, UFRGS, Porto Alegre. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ge…
📢📢 New sPlot paper published! ⭐️⭐️ @ThoreEngel led this great study in which the prevalence of traits from dominant species drives ecosystem function in grasslands worldwide. Check it at onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
How do plant functional traits contribute to ecosystem functioning? Using grassland data from @sPlot_iDiv and #MODIS satellite images, we found a disproprortionate contribution of dominant plant species to peak season productivity @GEB_macro onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Plant functional traits should be tightly linked to climate, but this was elusive to prove at the global scale. @KambachStephan shows why: The relationship is habitat specific 🔥Hot off the press🔥nature.com/articles/s4146… @sPlot_iDiv
I am excited to share our new @NatureEcoEvo paper that uses @inaturalist citizen science observations to map plant functional traits on a global scale! 🔗nature.com/articles/s4155… #iNatTraitMaps #CitizenScience #firstpaper @Rsc4Earth @UniLeipzig @NFDI4BioDiv @idiv 🧵1/8
I am very happy for @so_phiewolf! Her first PhD paper was just published @NatureEcoEvo where she combined @inaturalist #CitizenScience data and @TryPlantTraitDB to generate global maps of #planttraits and compared them to @sPlot_iDiv nature.com/articles/s4155… 🧵1/7
There is a #paradox in #biodiversity conservation: species disappear regionally, but local species richness is stable @HelgeBruelheide @idiv @UniHalle and colleagues tackle this problem for Germany. Hot of the press: nature.com/articles/s4158…
‼️JOB ALERT‼️ Research Officer (m/f/d) for the project "MultiTroph Data management" (Z2), @GeobotanyHalle, @UniHalle | Halle (Saale), Germany | Closing date: 15 October 2022 verwaltung.uni-halle.de/dezern3/Aussch…
👩🏾🔬👨🔬CALL FOR COLLABORATION👩🏾🔬👨🔬 We are looking for Global South researchers who have vegetation (plot level) data! 🌍 Join sPlot and become part of a global network of scientists unraveling patterns in plant biodiversity! 🌼🌴🌿☀️🌦️🌱☘️🌾 Contribution deadline: end of October
A new study incl. authors from @IBOTCZ shows that the Eastern European forest-steppe region is home to a similar number of plant species as the Amazon rainforest, which only becomes apparent when species are counted in smaller sampling areas. nature.com/articles/s4146… @NatureComms

Global patterns of vascular plant alpha diversity
Nature Communications - Global patterns of regional plant diversity are relatively well known, but whether they hold for local communities is debated. This study created multi-grain global maps of...
On February 9, 1990, Carl Sagan gave this speech before the 5th Emerging Issues Forum at NCSU, expounding on climate observations and energy strategies for a sustainable future, emphasizing solar [full speech: buff.ly/3RZhLOY]
Here is a comment about our @sPlot_iDiv paper with Francesco Sabatini: Species richness of plant communities: the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer? ecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/species-… #behindthepaper
Research published in @NatureComms presents global maps of local species richness for vascular plants in order to provide a nuanced understanding of plant diversity hotspots and improve predictions of global change effects on biodiversity. go.nature.com/3ARGWeG
In a post "linking to elsewhere", Francesco Maria Sabatini and colleagues describe a story behind their recent paper in Nature Communications: Global patterns of vascular plant alpha diversity vegsciblog.org/2022/09/03/the…
