Well done to @nadinepraeg.bsky.social for presenting and promoting our review of #MountainSoilBiodiversity at the #IMC2025. 👏🙏 In collaboration with @gmba-ipo.bsky.social, we compiled a wealth of information on our knowledge of alpine soil biota. 🪴🦠🪱 Openly accessible here: doi.org/10.1111/brv....

Next in the #MountainSoilBiodiversity poster session at the #IMC2025 is Theresa Rzehak showing us the variety of #soil #microbiota in different mountain habitats and elevations.

Our #MountainSoilBiodiversity session at the #IMC2025 is not yet finished: here our #PosterSession contributions: first Annabel Lindley showing us how #microbiota, #plants, and #invertebrates differ (or not) in natural, extensively, and intensively managed land.

Next in our #MountainSoilBiodiversity session at the #IMC2025 is co-convener @nadinepraeg.bsky.social showing us the soil meta-communities (i.e. the sum of all #microbiota) in mountain and alpine soils in the #LTER area #Matsch in #SouthTyrol.

(4/4) We also identified research gaps that need to be addressed in future. 🤗 THANKS to all our co-authors, to our supervisors Julia Seeber (@jseeber.bsky.social), Bettina Weber (@fundivecol.bsky.social), and Paul Illmer. Many thanks to the GMBA support by Davnah and Mark (@gmba-ipo.bsky.social)

This work is the result of a fantastic group of co-authors: @nadinepraeg.bsky.social, Paul, Fiona, Richard, Johnny, and Michael, colleagues that have taught me so much about microbial ecology: Aoife, Aaron, Israel, and Kerry (4/n)

... functional group composition (the abundance of grasses or forbs) and leaf traits (specifically LDMC) modulated the effect of increasing drought intensity on microbial communities. (3/n)

We found that increasing drought intensity has increasingly pronounced effects on soil fungal and bacterial communities during and after drought. While plant community strategy (fast- or slow-strategy) had muted effects on microbial community structure and function (2/n)

Big shout out to Michael @msteinwandter.bsky.social for very nicely presenting our literature findings about the global mountain soil biodiversity above the treeline www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... on the #IUSS100 #centennialoftheiuss #soilscience #Florence

Today @nadinepraeg.bsky.social rocked the floor at the #IUSS2024 #SoilScience #Conference speaking about the #microbiome in #soils and different organisms interacting with soil such as #SoilFauna and mammals. A collaboration of @euracalpenv.bsky.social, @uniinnsbruck.bsky.social , & #FEM (Trentino)

Christmas is here and we are happy to announce that our review on "Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline" is online as preprint at bioRxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2023... Happy reading and commenting 😉 Cheers 🏔️🦠🌱🪱 With @nadinepraeg.bsky.social, @jseeber.bsky.social, and many more 💪
