Prescribed ecological burn conducted at Como in southeastern Queensland, Australia. Fires were implemented in either autumn or winter, and obligate seeding species were subsequently monitored over time to see if recovery differed with fire seasonality. The work was undertaken as a joint collaboration between the University of New South Wales (Sydney, Australia), Queensland Fire and Biodiversity Consortium, Queensland Parks and Wildlife and HQ Plantations.

Will biodiversity actions yield healthy places? A systematic review of human health outcomes associated with biodiversity‐focused urban greening
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog.
Yes, solutions for nature are also solutions for health!
This new analysis finds urban greening is "associated with a wide range of positive health outcomes including improved physical and mental health, increased physical activity, improved childhood development, and reduced exposure to harms."

Biodiversity is the web of life that keeps our planet healthy.
But it’s under threat from pollution, habitat loss, and climate change.

A tale of homogenisation
I’ve always been intrigued by ecological scaling – it’s literally in my title: Assistant Professor in Ecological Scaling. One of the main reasons we care so much about scaling is that ecologi…
New paper from the MIREN network!
We tested how homogenisation (ecosystems becoming more alike through invasions) changes with scale.
Global = clear pattern
Local = not so simple

Like pulling the plug of a bathtub: an incredible mass of #glacier ice disappearing at Griesgletscher (🇨🇭/🇮🇹) in one century.
It felt emotional to visit the exact same spot @swisstopo cartographers chose in 1919. The view was so different.
Simply unbelievable!!

I really need to take a deeper dive on these IPBES assessments. It is like IPCC for climate change, but science of biodiversity, governance, and change.

An upward view of a lush forest canopy with tall trees stretching toward the sky. The image shows numerous straight, tall tree trunks with textured bark and vibrant green foliage overhead. The trees appear to be mature hardwoods, creating a dense, natural cathedral-like ceiling of leaves. Text overlaid on the image reads "NATURE HEALS" and "Biodiversity supports mental health" in dark text. A smaller text block from the IPBES Nexus Assessment describes the relationship between nature and health. The IPBES logo appears in the top right corner. The photograph emphasizes the height and density of the forest, with sunlight filtering through the leaves creating a natural green glow throughout the scene.
It's #WorldMentalHealthDay 🌍
#DidYouKnow Healthy ecosystems support healthy minds?
IPBES #NexusAssessment confirms: biodiversity and functioning ecosystems improve mental health. Access to biodiverse environments facilitates recovery from stress, depression & other health-related conditions.🏡🧪

Scientific productivity gap based on English-language peer-reviewed papers. Shown are the maximum % differences in the number of peer-reviewed papers published by female native English speakers from a high-income country (-45%), female non-native English speakers from a high-income country (-60%), and female non-native English speakers from a lower-middle income country (-70%), compared to male native English speakers from a high-income country (red flag).
