First glimpse into our BIOME project fieldwork in Brunei! 🌴🇧🇳 Exploring Earth’s oldest primary rainforests (130–140 mya) with 70m trees & incredible biodiversity. Huge thanks to our dedicated team on the ground. Part 1 of our video series. Jumpa lagi! 🐿️🌿 #BIOMEproject #Macroecology #Brunei

Congrats to Dami for her paper on reconciling complementary and connectivity—two important concepts in nature conservation design. 🎉 It is not an easy task to deal with measures that are so hard to reasonably quantitify. doi.org/10.1016/j.ge...

LiDAR sampling at the Stillberg experimental site in Davos 🌳⛰️ UAVs offer an efficient means to measure and monitor forest structure. Within recent years, such technology became increasingly efficient, available, and affordable. 🚀 @wsl-dme.bsky.social

The BIOME team is on its way to Sardinia! 🚢🌳 Following campaigns in Switzerland & Ecuador, our PhD students are kicking off a new field season studying Mediterranean holm oak forests together with Alberto Tarroni. Proud to partner with FoReSTAS & colleagues from the University of Padua. 👇

Where do species find suitable habitats in Switzerland? And how will habitat suitabilities change under future climate scenarios? Here, we have modelled maps for more than 7500 swiss species: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

📱🌱 Plant identification apps are booming – but which one is the best? And how reliable are the results? 🤔 Our researchers collected over 5,000 photos of 560 Swiss plant species from 85 habitat types and tested the most popular apps.🔎 Here are the findings: shorturl.at/lD0Cl

Plant species ID providers have been facilitating the work of citizen scientists and experts for years. 🌿 They can also flag suspicious records in large databases and reduce validation effort. 🔍 But how do providers differ and which one shall I use? 🤔 Find out here 👉🏽 doi.org/10.1016/j.ec...
