🚨Finally out! Our 30th anniversary #ITEX special Issue in Arctic Science Journal. A collection of 23 papers (and more can/will be added) showing the breadth that ITEX tundra research have today. Anne Bjorkman Christian Rixen Ingibjörg Svala Jónsdóttir Special Issue cdnsciencepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

It is also still possible for authors of subsequent ITEX papers that are published in Arctic Science Journal to have their papers linked directly to this special issue. Here is one such paper, just published as "just-IN", and very useful for people using OTCs. cdnsciencepub.com/doi/abs/10.113…

Absolutely honoured and thrilled to have been selected as a 2022 Rutherford Discovery Fellow! royalsociety.org.nz/what-we-do/fun…

This is a wonderful way of making small and largely ignored organisms visible, showing them in the best light! Thanks for decorating the @WSL_research in Birmensdorf with this large-scale art work! PERMOS Christian Rixen @SLFDavos Gottardo Pestalozzi @rahel_oberhummer

A few years ago, Tom Wohlgemuth, Anke Jentsch and I edited the first German-language textbook on disturbance ecology, synthesizing a Central European perspective on disturbance ecology & mgmt. Upon popular demand, we've now translated the book to English: link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Open Phd position in our group in Davos! If you are interested in community ecology consider working with us in the besutiful Swiss Alps!

Today we learned how to properly use a rescue blanket @SLFDavos What fun 😄! #FirstAidMountains Christian Rixen

Today is the longest day in the northern hemisphere -- and also #showyourstripes day. The warming stripes show how the temperature has changed anywhere in the world. Find yours here and share them too: showyourstripes.info showyourstripes.info/stripes/EUROPE…

We had so much fun today at the day of the open door @SLFDavos with our Biodiversity corner. Seed bombs, planting plants, science and great chats with the public!

Shrooming season started!!

The last funded INTERACT project @Zackenberg, “Plantstory” led by Christian Rixen, has completed a resurvey of historical botanical records on Clavering Island. Here the team, having conquered the peak of Østtinden.

How is biodiversity around the globe responding to warming? Do drivers differ between terrestrial and aquatic realms?🌿🐟 Check out our new paper in Nature Communications led by imran khaliq analyzing change in 7,123 freshwater and 6,201 terrestrial communities! go.nature.com/49ZoZuH

In this new paper, we quantified and compared the extent of warming-related community turnover (thermophilisation) in temperate freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems around the world. 🧵(1/7) imran khaliq, Christian Rixen doi.org/10.1038/s41467…
