How do forest disturbance, post-disturbance succession and temperature variability affect #moth and #butterfly diversity? Led by Imran Khaliq, we fitted 20,000 species distribution models to #CitizenScience data from across Germany and predicted responses: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

There is currently a lot of debate about #grazing vs. #mowing for #biodiversity - often polarized, with grazing seen as the holy grail and mowing as detrimental. I have long felt that it's not so much about one or the other, but about intensity and system. Well, here is another example:

#Bird #surveys: Do we need to rewrite our methodological standards? #PassiveAcousticMonitoring suggests that expert-based recommendations might lead to under-recording, due to diurnal and seasonal mismatches.

#Fieldwork update from our PyroDiv project (uni-goettingen.de/en/690609.html): A Kazakh-German field team is now collecting data on the Great Steppe to reveal the impact of fire legacies and grazing on biodiversity. Great collab between @acbk.bsky.social @consbiogoe.bsky.social and @uni-muenster.de.
