I delivered the PhD 🤓🌿🗻 - thanks to all the people who helped me along the way Jonas Lembrechts , Jonathan von Oppen , Jolanta Rieksta and many others. Now I will proudly feast on my leftover chocolate #phdchat


Jana Eichel TOMST @UU_PhysGeog @TOMST Dwarfs are nice :-) We are using them for the ASICS - Cold region invasions . Now we have quite nice coverage of the world mountain regions... in combination with ion exchange probes, ideal... and of course near paths, where is high risk of damage by tourists or road management



Summer in the high Arctic! Our interdisciplinary #ArcticGreening team has unusually hot working conditions these days in #Svalbard ETH Zürich Vitenskapsmuseet

Hi people who were International Mountain Conference #imf2022! I'm super jealous I wasn't there! This to let you know that we teamed up with Mountain Research Initiative @mtnresearchmri.bsky to increase the representation of mountains in the SoilTemp database. Reach out if you have microclimate data from mountains!


Now the #PhD defense by Ronja Wedegärtner, PhD has started! An hour of cutting-edge science on how trails are affecting species distributions in mountains and, broader: how new plants are entering mountains, and how that impacts our precious mountain nature.




Important perspective piece by @cassandrafish et al in Science Magazine: climate change and commercial fishing are immediate threats to biodiversity in the Antarctic ocean! Time for a better strategy to conserve this amazing ecosystem! Luis R. Pertierra science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

"The mystery of the Dark and Light Beetles on Possession Island" ‼️NEW PAPER‼️ out from ASICS - Cold region invasions on dark and light morphotypes of a subantarctic beetle! Read my 'paperback detective' version of it in this blogpost the3dlab.org/2023/01/26/the…


PLS RETWEET: UAntwerpen just opened a call for 7 MSCA-funded, 3-year junior post-doc positions. Candidates with max 6 years of post-doc experience. Topic: the urban environment! Contact me if interested in urban microclimate or/and invasive plants! cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101…

Our local conservation decisions can dramatically slow down or speed up microclimate change, I argue today in NatureClimate Local microclimate management is thus crucial for species conservation in a warming climate! nature.com/articles/s4155…



Once in a lifetime opportunity to work for 5 (!) Years on MIREN-related research, in the team of the amazing Sylvia Haider!
