How many botanists does it take to harvest 583 plants grown under diff CO2, competition and water conditions. Turns out, loads! Exciting harvest of our Natural Environment Research Council experiments years in the making to understand encroachment in savanna ecosystems.

Here is the paper and collaboration of the CongoPeat team, the Enno Schefuss’ lab (not on Twitter), and Yannick Garcin’s lab. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our sister reviews in Science Magazine synthesise current knowledge on #Madagascar's biodiversity and identify key opportunities for conservation @KewScience @TeamKMCC Antonelli Lab @GGBC Naturvetenskap/GU #COP15 #biodiversity doi.org/10.1126/scienc… doi.org/10.1126/scienc…

NEW PAPERS!: Today our TWO review articles on the biodiversity of Madagascar were published in Science Magazine. This project included 84 co-authors and 50 institutions, born from an Antonelli Lab group meeting in 2020. Kew Science, Kew Madagascar & Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre led the papers.

Happy to announce the publication (openarchaeologydata.metajnl.com/articles/10.53…) of the AfriArch #isotopic #database. This contains c. 5,500 #bioarchaeological isotopic measurements from #Holocene #African sites. The AfriArch data community (pandoradata.earth/organization/a…) is a Pandora and IsoMemo partner.

Interested in African #palynology, #paleoecology, and/or #archaeobotany? Want to develop practical skills using #R other #OpenAccess resources to improve your research? Join the African Pollen Database workshop series! DM with ?s. Links in next tweet. Please RT!

Enjoyed presentation by Francois from Olo Be Taloha Lab Leicester Palaeo on the coral project to the Community Elders and Olo Be Taloha Lab prepared by Leanne Manlin Zhang according to the questionnaire of the community interest . The Elders had many questions and shared experiences

Manlin Zhang Leanne N. Phelps started their open water dive certificate today with Bic from Olo Be Taloha Lab as instructor. He is so amazing in everything he does

Kristina and Francois Olo Be Taloha Lab and our fantastic Bic giving them opening speeches for the research team. Our core display by Leanne N. Phelps Manlin Zhang and the baobab team for the ceremony attendees

The box is filling up with our core pieces from the giant Porites in Andavadaoka. 2.05m done and Jens Zinke Leicester Palaeo Olo Be Taloha Lab still going. First good weather conditions made that possible. Manlin Zhang Leanne N. Phelps now scuba divers, tomorrow open water divers.

Over the past month I had the great pleasure of diving & coring corals with Jens Zinke, Manlin Zhang & the MAP team in SW Madagascar [left-right: Odilon, Jens, me; Kristina Douglass filming; Dylan Davis & Pota on boat]. Beautiful experience, can’t wait for the climate records 🌊

I'm very excited to talk with Madagascar Biodiversity Center about my research on Tuesday!
