Lichen Agaric (Lichenomphalia ericetorum) thrives in shifting habitats this spring. New observations reveal its uncanny adaptability in evolving climates. How do you think fungi hint at nature’s secrets? #FungiExplained #SpringScience #EcoChange

🌊 #EcoChange meeting at @umeaunimarine.bsky.social provided an excellent opportunity to catch up on the latest research! Thanks! 🧪🦑

A wonderful morning spent at @umeaunimarine.bsky.social #EcoChange annual meeting 🌊
Special bravo to my postdoc Luis González Guerrero, who presented his research on Baltic macrophyte photophysiology - initial data from his busy summer of #fieldwork. More data to come! 🤩

Prof. Johan Wikner, Umeå University

“Oxidation of ammonium by archaea and their uptake of carbon dioxide can explain the relatively high oxygen consumption measured in the central Arctic Ocean and change our perspective on carbon cycling”, says Johan Wikner, researcher @umeaunimarine.bsky.social
