Restoring key wild animal species may enable enough C capture to reach 60% of global targets. Joris Cromsigt recapping a recent paper as part of his talk. But African π had little effect on aboveground woody carbon despite increases in wood density @SSNM2024 SavannaScienceNM
Old tech but still good. Measuring soil microbial basal respiration in soils with and without megaherbivores π with Smithsonian #soil #carbon #microbes
Beautiful AM-expression-painting by Tania Chancellor from Paszkowski Lab - this is going to let cell biology of AM fungi explode 12th International Conference on Mycorrhiza 2024 #ICOM12
Wonderful to see old ( and new) colleagues at THE conference on all things mycorrhiza #ICOM12 International Mycorrhiza Society
Great if sobering talk at #ICOM12 by Matthias C. Rillig on the reality of how multiple (vs single) global change factors decrease both plant biomass and arbuscular #mycorrhiza. Innovative experimental design to look at this too. International Mycorrhiza Society Conservation Intl
An important and wonderfully delivered talk by Justin Stewart on estimating (AM) hyphal lengths of the world, with the highest in #grasslands. Part of SPUN vital work to put #mycorrhiza conservation on the map! #ICOM12 12th International Conference on Mycorrhiza 2024 International Mycorrhiza Society Conservation Intl
#Biodiversityhotspots are one way to prioritize conservation but Laura van Galen shows we can't presume plants hotspots are proxies for fungal diversity! #ICOM12 12th International Conference on Mycorrhiza 2024 International Mycorrhiza Society SPUN Conservation Intl
