Over 80% of the world’s terrestrial #biodiversity can be found in forests; their destruction threatens the survival of many species.
Forest landscape restoration can help reverse these losses.

Updating the model of secondary succession in the Tropics (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…) - a wonderful collaboration led by #NadjaRuger @2ndFOR1 @InvestigaUMayor @CEM_UMayor

Toasting with the 2ndFOR research network at #ATBC2022 4 the now already famous paper with Catarina Jakovac in Sc Adv. Can you recognize at least 10 people? Then we invite you a beer!😀doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.abn17…
Young #secondary #forests show strong floristic variation across the #Neotropics, with 14 regions differing in #species composition. This is surprising, as it was thought they would be dominated by a few widespread pioneer species.Jakovac @2ndFOR1 in ScAdv tinyurl.com/ys9f98ah

Check out a new paper with @PoorterLourens in @PLOSCompBiol:
Ten simple rules for managing communications with a large number of coauthors dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.…
And here is how you can assess forest dynamics for your landscape as well!

Please RT: A call for papers! ForestGEO postdoc, Nobby Kunert, is guest editing a special edition of @Forests_MDPI focused on nutrients and water use of trees on tropical forests. Manuscripts submissions due 31 May 2020: mdpi.com/journal/forests/spe… @ForestPlots @2ndFOR1

A study finds that close to a trillion trees could potentially be planted on Earth—enough to sequester more than 200 billion tons of carbon. But environmental change on this scale is no easy task. pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/cl…
We will be at the #ATBC2019 in #Madagascar! Will you? Early Bird
Registration is open until tomorrow! @theATBC atbc2019.org/
Check out our new @2ndFOR1 work @NatureEcoEvo by L. Poorter & >70 others: Wet and dry tropical forests show opposite successional pathways in wood density but converge over time. nature.com/articles/s41559-0…
