How did research on soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning progress over the past decade? Read our new paper in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com, led by Nico Eisenhauer @eisenhauerlab.bsky.social and Marie Sünnemann @msoil.bsky.social: www.nature.com/articles/s44...
12.01.2026 17:13 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0In our latest paper, just published in @natcomms.nature.com we show that soil conditions, landscape structure & land-use change shape global soil pathogenic fungal diversity. Landscape complexity and crops increase diversity, while grass and tree cover reduce it www.nature.com/articles/s41...

How are Pacific NW mountain birds responding to climate change?
I got up at 4:00 am for a month to find out.
but first the backstory, or "how I spent seven years telling everyone this project wasn't possible"

Well done to @nadinepraeg.bsky.social for presenting and promoting our review of #MountainSoilBiodiversity at the #IMC2025. 👏🙏
In collaboration with @gmba-ipo.bsky.social, we compiled a wealth of information on our knowledge of alpine soil biota. 🪴🦠🪱

What is living in (and on) alpine soils at 3100m in the European #Alps?
"Not too much"? Check out this sample.
A lot of critters (abundance) and also some larger larvae (Tipulidae) and some flying insects (biomass).
Very excited to sort out these #GLORIA samples from #SouthTyrol.

Julia Seeber and Michael Steinwandter found a way to protect their wood decompostion sticks for the Soil BON project from curious bovines by using poultry wire boxes. Brilliant! ✨🌱🐄✨

Five years after VAIA:
– Norway spruce dominates regeneration (67%), but only 26% of plots meet targets.
– Browsing affects 25% of seedlings, especially Rowan, Willow, and Silver fir.
Management should promote species diversity and control browsing.
