This piece made me think of a new "academic tradition:" Twice a year, every researcher writes to someone they don’t know to share what they appreciated about one of their papers or presentations. It could be so encouraging!! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

nature.com

Admire another researcher’s work? Tell them about it

A small act of appreciation won’t solve the structural problems of academic life. But it can’t hurt.

Was der neue rechtsextreme Landtagsvizepräsident 2023 über den Anschlag auf die Synagoge in Halle sagte: „Ich glaube auch, dass der Anschlag in Halle, der von diesem verwirrten Einzeltäter begangen wurde, mit Antisemitismus schlecht erfasst ist.“ Woher nehmen solche Leute diese Dreistigkeit?

New paper out, led by Samuel Fischer: Quantifying the importance of ecosystem services in the context of agricultural carbon dioxide removal and rewetting – A deliberative choice experiment www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

As anthropogenic climate change progresses, the implementation of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is being debated more frequently. This research aims to shed light on preferences for ecosystem service provision associated with agricultural CDR measures, using deliberative choice experiments with a sample of 117 German citizens. It is one of the first studies transferring deliberative monetary valuation to the online format and valuing ecosystem services in the context of agricultural CDR and rewetting. Our findings indicate that habitat for biodiversity is potentially the most highly valued ecosystem service among those evaluated. Additionally, participants considered flood protection, climate regulation and water quality to be important, while preferences for soil erosion were lower. Furthermore, individuals expressed a higher willingness to pay after being confronted with information on the potential risk of mitigation deterrence, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Fig. 1. The distribution of the traits body length, feeding type, wing development, and hibernation type of carabid beetles along Alpine elevation sites in Matsch/Mazia, South Tyrol (Italy). Numerical variables show mean CWM values of the variable per elevation and were tested with Kruskal Wallis rank-sum test (added in legend) followed by pairwise-Wilcoxon test. Categorical variables were also tested with Kruskal Wallis rank-sum test followed by pairwise Dunn test (significant results are shown with small letters). Credits for the icon: Eurac Research.

Fig. 6. Overlap of pairs of hypervolumes indicated by the Sørensen index (0–1, where 1 is maximal similarity and 0 is no similarity). (A) The graph shows three comparisons on the X-axis of adjacent elevations, and (B) shows three comparisons along elevation starting always from the lowest elevation (1000 m) to all other elevations. (C) The photograph shows the silhouette of the actual sampled elevation sites in the LT(S)ER area "Matsch/Mazia". Please note: the lower part of the 1000 m was artificially extended due to perspectival reasons, and the locations of the sampling plots on this silhouette (yellow squares) are symbolic and do not represent their real location.
