🌸 Spring is here and orchids are in full bloom!
We’re in the field working on Rubén Arco’s Bachelor’s thesis, a Botany project exploring orchid diversity in the Balearic Islands 🌿👇

✨ The findings highlight the importance of integrating multiple ecological and functional traits to improve extinction-risk assessments in island floras. 🌺

Yesterday, PhD students from the #BOTLAND research group took part in the I Science Meeting at the @uib.cat, an event aimed at 3rd- and 4th-year undergraduate Science students. 🧪🌿

We also discussed potential future collaborations, including the deposition of plant samples derived from our research, access to specialised services and support in the development of biodiversity databases.

👉 Plant traits can be used as early warning signals when population or demographic data are missing.
This is highly relevant for conservation planning:
✔️ Better prioritization
✔️ More efficient resource allocation
✔️ Faster decision-making

👏 Congratulations to all students for their outstanding work! These sessions showcase the potential of the next generation of scientists. At #BOTLAND, we have a wide range of research themes for students to begin exploring scientific inquiry and shape their own path.
🎓 This Friday the 12th at 10:00 h, Pere Miquel Mir-Rosselló defends his thesis: “Interdisciplinary approach to the biology of Mediterranean bryophytes”

In this work, Miquel Capó (@miquelcapo.bsky.social), #BOTLAND member, participated as the person responsible for the Balearic Islands dataset.
🌸 With this work, we aim to deepen our understanding of this unique species and contribute to its conservation. Follow along as we share new findings from Project MalMen!

🌿 We’ve started work on Project #MalMen, funded by the Institut d’Estudis Menorquins (IME) and coordinated by @joshuaborras.bsky.social and Marcello Cerrat, with contributions from other #BOTLAND members.
A recent update on the park’s flora of es Trenc-Salobrar de Campos has been published, carried out by #BOTLAND member Dr. Llorenç Gil

Today’s gonna be all about nerding out! But not until late tonight, or maybe even tomorrow morning. First things first - my friend’s birthday party.
