I am really excited to share our new paper, published today in Nature. We show that rising atmospheric CO2 is linked to decling nutrient availability in boreal forest, with implications for the future carbon sink. Kudos to lead author @kelleyrbassett.bsky.social.

Visited Henan Dabieshan National Field Observation & Research Station of Forest Ecosystems. Lots of cool ongoing research on N deposition, soil fauna, and much more! 😀 #global #forests #precipitation
Just some pics from recent fieldwork up north! #Abisko #mountains #warmimg #climate
I'm so excited to share our new paper in Global Change Biology: A network of 18 wildfire chronosequences reveals key environmental drivers and knowledge gaps in the boreal nitrogen balance, with @michael-gundale.bsky.social and others. doi.org/10.1111/gcb....
Huge congratulations to your awesome master thesis, Emily!!! So much work, so proud 🎊❤️
More results from our experiment researching non-linear responses of subarctic meadows to warming climate coming soon! 🤩

The word is out officially, now: SoilTemp has finished its transformation into 'The MEB-network' - a fully-fledged research network that goes far beyond just being a database. And boy, does that make me proud!
Let me show you all the ways you can get involved here:
