Researchers at Point Blue & @unevadareno.bsky.social are studying how #peat forms in rare Sierra Nevada fens (peat forming wetlands cover < 0.5% of Sierra Nevada land area). Peat holds water, stores carbon, & keeps records of ancient climates & ecosystems. But how deep does peat go? 🌎🧪🌐

🚨 The #EndangeredSpeciesAct is under threat. A proposed rule would strip habitat protections by redefining harm and weakening one of the most effective #conservation laws in U.S. history. Read the op-ed by Point Blue’s Rose Snyder & Liz Chamberlin @thehill.com 🔗 shorturl.at/2JffK 🌎🧪🦑🌐🦉 #savetheESA

It’s wild to think that these peatlands store more carbon than the Amazon rainforest!!

Visited a privately-owned and protected fen last week … Absolutely mind-blown by the biodiversity! 🌿🐸🦋🐝 🌸🌼 🌎 What’s a fen? It’s a type of wetland that rely on groundwater and takes hundreds of years to develop: www.fs.usda.gov/wildflowers/...

Why do birds help predict bee richness beyond land covers? Birds complement satellites by indicating small habitat features like flowering shrubs and land management practices. Together with land covers, they add insight to wild bee conservation science. 🐤+🛰️=🐝 journals.plos.org/plosone/arti... 🦉🧪🌎🌐
