New paper with @drandygreen.bsky.social in New Phytologist! We argue that classical seed-dispersal syndromes are subjective proxies—not mechanisms—and can obscure how plants move. A clearer, mechanism-based framework is needed to understand dispersal and its evolution. doi.org/10.1111/nph....

Our new New Forests paper🌲🌲🌲 Lodgepole pine grows fast and stores carbon, but it also spreads aggressively in Iceland and reduces native biodiversity. It's important to weigh both the benefits and the ecological costs before planting non-native trees at scale link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Lodgepole pine in Iceland: biomass gains cannot be interpreted without ecological costs. Response to Riege et al. - New Forests

We respond to Riege et al. (New For 56:68, 2025), who present valuable new data on early biomass accumulation by lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) in Iceland. We argue that this finding cannot be evalua...

Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) invasion in Steinadalur, SE Iceland. A sub-arctic heathland is becoming a dense forest due to *Pinus contorta* invasion. This rapid ecological shift, seen across Iceland, will impact both native flora and birdlife in the years ahead.
