The new #IUCN red list shows that 15% of European butterfly species are now threatened with extinction - and one is already extinct.

I'll be sharing butterfly photos on my Instagram (bio_miky) to keep awareness alive 🦋

Mounting risks threaten survival of wild European pollinators – IUCN Red List Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, 11 October 2025 (IUCN) – Nearly 100 additional wild bee species in Europe have been classified as threatened in a new assessment for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Sp...

Pollinators - the foundation for food systems, ecosystems and societies:
Nearly 100 additional wild bee species in Europe classified as threatened in a new assessment for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™with more than 20% of species in groups face risk of extinction.

I spent the past week volunteering in the #AltaMurgia National Park, a @unesco.org site in Italy, monitoring pollinators (bees and butterflies), as part of the project #Parchigiani "la resistenza della biodiversità". A rewarding way to support biodiversity research 🐝🦋🌳🌸

In the forest, a few wild honey bee nests can be found. These understudied natural colonies are vital to understand pollinator resilience in semi-natural habitats, especially now that #wildhoneybees have been declared endangered in Europe by the #IUCN

Mercadante Forest is one of the few green hearts of the Park, a manmade pine forest creted in the early 1900s to protect nearby towns from floods and erosion.

Last week I had the chance to stand before two monumental Quercus pubescens in the #MercadanteForest, in the Alta Murgia National Park (Puglia, ITA). Their massive trunks and quiet presence were breathtaking.

I left thinking about all the stories they've silently witnessed in 800 years...

Today at 3pm CEST, EnriCo-alumna Larissa Topanotti will talk about navigating her scientific work through forest ecology, management and life' twists 🌲🌍🍺

@christina-hn.bsky.social gave insights into tree growth, the role of water supply, and how we measure it - from traditional approaches to high-resolution sensors.

@rschwutke.bsky.social took participants into the canopy to measure stomatal conductance (=how much water exits leaves through stomata). Trees limit water loss by regulating their stomata - some tree species are more conservative with their water and close their stomata earlier than others

Saturday we @enricounigoe.bsky.social went into the forest for our outreach project “Forest Resilience: Science and Practice”. We showed how scientists study forests — from soil to canopy — to supports climate-resilient forest management.

Podcast | Meteor The Meteor podcast about science communication with impact, including about the podcast, how you can get episodes in your inbox, and an archive of past episodes.

Just posted the one and only episode in season 5 of the #SciComm podcast I do with @bgmerkle.bsky.social. It's basically a 17-min audio version of "WOAH NOW"

Yellowstone’s free-moving large bison herds provide a glimpse of their past ecosystem function Although momentum is building to restore bison across North America, most efforts focus on small, managed herds, leaving unclear how large, migrating herds shape landscapes and whether their effects enhance or degrade ecosystems. We assessed carbon and ...

The importance of large herds of mega-herbivores. Interesting paper in Science. #EcosystemFunctioning

To the right of the image, there is text which states that the talk is called "Climbing tree canopies and crossing ecosystems: my scientific quest to understand plant water relations). It also states that the talk is on 9 September from 10:30.

Online seminar series: Forest Resilience: Science and Practice

Of interest to students and researchers in forest sciences and related disciplines. Experts share their career journeys and latest research: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/701005.html

Everyone interested welcome to join, so why not swing by?

54th GfÖ Annual Meeting, Wednesday September 03, 2025 / 02:45 PM - 03:00 PM, "33-08 - Plasticity in thermotolerance in Central European timber species"

Are you at #gfoe2025 and curious about how sensitive Central European trees are to high temperatures? Come see my talk on Wednesday, September 3rd in Room 2.007 at 14:25!

On the way to #Würzburg for #gfö2025 to present exciting results from the @enricounigoe.bsky.social project!

We've officially done the real-deal fieldwork after tree climbing course
@rschwutke.bsky.social and @kieuthuyquynh.bsky.social completed their very first tree climbing work after the training to collect leaves samples. It was a huge, upward-bound step for our research, and we're so ready for more!
