the belowground world of plant communities is amazing! Check this special issue out! And if you want to know more about fire and belowground traits, take a look at link.springer.com/article/10.100… Aline Bombo LEVeg_Unesp Agência FAPESP UNESP - São Paulo State University

Rangeland tree planting has not only limited potential for additional C storage but also a high potential to reduce vital ecosystem services, thereby adversely affecting the lives and livelihoods of local people 🚩🚩🚩

2-days until the next seminar organized by the Ecoinformatics IAVS. On April 19th (14.00 CEST) Francesco Maria Sabatini will talk about 'Reproducible workflows using markdown'!

Fire facilitates the diversity of the ground layer in the Miombo 🔥 The paper is now out in Annals of Botany doi.org/10.1093/aob/mc…
& I had a great time presenting our research at the #SSNM2024 🌾 SANParks School of GeoSciences @ University of Edinburgh Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh

Bring your attention to Navashni Govender, Senior Conservation Manager KrugerNationalPark and glass-ceiling beaker for #African #conservation . Once told 'women cannot manage fire', she's a global leader in understanding how to use fire to enhance #nature #InternationalWomensDay

New office for today: discussing science and having great ideas

Looking forward to discussing about savannas in the next year again at the #SSNM !

So proud of my PhD students, who gave amazing talks at the #SSNM2024 . Vagner Zanzarini Marco Chiminazzo Cassy Rodrigues LEVeg_Unesp Agência FAPESP UNESP - São Paulo State University

Beginning the discussions about fire and savannas. Finishing my talk for the next week at the #SSNM2024

Frequently #botanists describe new species, sometimes they described a new genus, but very rarely they describe a new #family ! Introducing Afrothismiaceae, a new family endemic to #tropical #Africa by Martin Cheek Marybel Soto Gomez et al doi.org/10.1007/s12225…

Vast areas of African #savanna grasslands threatened by inappropriate tree-based restoration. With Nicola Stevens Mariska te Beest science.org/doi/epdf/10.11…

Planting up natural grasslands with 'forest' may not be the aim, but because grassy systems are persistently misclassified as forest, this IS happening. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
