We were represented at Pheno2025 conference (@biometeorology.bsky.social) in ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ท for the last 5 days. The days were full of exciting presentations and intensive exchange about phenological research. We look forward to deepening the collaborations we made in the future๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒ.

We are happy that we can contribute to this conference in Brazil. Phenological research, like ecological research in general, must indeed be thought of in global terms, in line with the title of the conference: โ€˜PHENO2025 - Towards a Global Phenology Scienceโ€™.๐ŸŒ

PhenObs data were used for a paper recently published in Global Ecology and Biogeography.

We just finished the PhenObs Spring Symposium. In six very different presentations, colleagues from all over Europe talked about how botanical gardens can be used for ecological research๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿงช๐ŸŒ.
Conclusion: Botanical gardens are a fascinating research platforms๐Ÿ‘.

Should we protect non-native species? A new study says maybe | iDiv What happens when plants thrive outside their native range but struggle in their original habitat? A new study puts numbers to a growing conservation dilemma.

๐ŸŒฟA new study in @newphyt.bsky.social finds that 27% of naturalised plants are threatened in their native range, revealing a conservation dilemma. As species distributions shift, conservation policies may need to evolve. #iDivResearch www.idiv.de/should-we-pr...

I invite you to track seasonal changes in plants and animals -- #phenology -- in your yard, to support science, and more importantly, because it is good FOR YOU.

Excited to share my #TEDxUofA talk from last October: youtu.be/3l0fMlv2-5Q

Plant communities in the Arctic are changing along with the climate, study finds | CBC News A recent study has found that climate change is altering Arctic plant composition, with some species declining in response to warmer temperatures, while others flourish. Researchers studied over 2,000...

Over forty years, research spanning the Canadian Arctic, Alaska, and Scandinavia has shown significant alterations in Arctic vegetation as a consequence of climate variations. Around 60% of the locations examined in the study have witnessed a shift in plant species composition.

It is time to go "belowground" and starting monitoring of root phenology of herbaceous plant๐ŸŒป. Thanks to funding by the @idiv-research.bsky.social we could set-up a study site with minirhizotrons at the botanical garden of Jena๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ.
