Oksana Y Buzhdygan reviewed previous studies, investigated how research on #MultitrophicEffects of #Biodiversity on #EcosystemFunctioning could advance the application of #EcologicalIntensification measures in agriculture and forestry.

EI management at different spatial scales, from the field scale to the multiple-field scale to the landscape scale.

The study of Ravi Mohan Tiwari et al. suggested that the relationship between #Biodiversity and #EcosystemFunctioning of trees in #SubtropicalForests depended on the selection of #DiversityIndex, #EnvironmentaConditions and #StandDevelopmentalStage.

C: the wire coupling between the funnel and the resin column containing a mesh to prevent larger objects entering the resin column. D: overview of the resin column with the wire couplings. E: the resin column fitted tightly into the PVC tube, which allowed easy installation of the resin columns in the field. F: paired samplers in the field."

These can be visually tracked using (c) time-laps cameras or (d) community science programs, and by using remote sensing techniques including (e) hydroacoustics."

According to our own kickoff survey, we will have published about 19 papers by December 2026... Let's see how this news will age 😜🤓
Follow us on our journey!

Reading and reminding myself of a gem of a paper by Ernest and Brown. Compelling case of how compensatory changes in species populations to environmental fluctuations can maintain approximate steady state w/ rates of resource supply and resource consumption.

#Introduction time

Hi everyone !

I'm Léa (she/her), postdoc in #Ecology at CNRS/University of Toulouse, France.

I'm interested in #SoilBiodiversity and #EcosystemFunctioning and the impacts of #GlobalChange such as #pollution.

Currently I study how a top predator (lizard) modulates the impacts of #climatechange on #belowground and #aboveground communities in a long term exciting experiment.

I mostly do #rstats now and am big fan of #metaanalysis and data synthesis in general.

👋 I am a senior research assistant in the #Altermatt_lab at #University_of_Zurich and #Eawag.

My research focuses on #amphipods, their #diversity and #distribution, both in epigean and subterranean #ecosystems. I combine field data and laboratory experiments to study the influence of connectivity on #diversity and the role of #amphipods for #ecosystem functioning in #freshwater.
