EU’s fork in a changing world: leading the transition or losing momentum? - npj Biodiversity The EU institutions must align their visions for the future and decide if the EU will lead the transformative systemic change required to achieve the United Nations’ goals on climate, biodiversity, an...

Because fine words butter no parsnips on 🌍 protection, the EU must move forwards from good intentions to action now‼️

Attenborough’s echidna rediscovered by combining Indigenous knowledge with camera-trapping - npj Biodiversity npj Biodiversity - Attenborough’s echidna rediscovered by combining Indigenous knowledge with camera-trapping

Sometimes there are good news in the biodiversity crisis. One of them is the wild populations of Attenborough's echidna, one species of marsupial hedgehog which was described in 1998 after an specimen captured in 1961, and whose status as extinct or extant was uncertain #npjBiodiversity 🧪🌐👇

Today we celebrate International Day For Biodiversity (IDB). At #npjBiodiversity @natureportfolio.nature.com we publish research on all aspects of biodiversity science, including works towards conciliating harmony with nature and sustainable development, this year's IDB motto. #BiodiversityDay 🧪

Besides invertebrates, microorganisms are often overlooked in conservation, despite their key role in controlling biogeochemical cycles under global change. Zucconi et al. discuss the need to prioritize microbial diversity in the highly endangered Antarctic ecosystems. #npjBiodiversity

Global conservation goals are challenged by international borders and conflicts. Maharaj Pandit proposes establishing a Greater Himalayan Peace Reserve (GHPR) to protect the region's vital role in climate control, water security, and agriculture for S & SE Asia 🌐 #npjBiodiversity

High fertiliser use halves numbers of pollinators, world’s longest study finds Even average use of nitrogen fertilisers cut flower numbers fivefold and halved pollinating insects

I missed it because it came out on 20 January and there were *a lot* of news that day, but the Guardian covered a #npjBiodiversity article! #pollinators #fertilisers #biodiversity

A study by Nicholas Balfour et al published at #npjBiodiversity shows negative effects of crop intensification on plant and pollinator diversity, based on experimental data from @rothamsted.bsky.social. Coverage by @theguardian.com and @collemyria.bsky.social

A very nice paper at #npjBiodiversity on how can we develop strategies for the persistence of the often neglected subterranean biodiversity. Subterranean life plays a key role in ecosystem processes and bigeochemical cycles.

A new collection from @natureportfolio.bsky.social #npjBiodiversity, edited by @annebeejay.bsky.social, Luis Pertierra, Daly Noll & Julia Kemppinen brings together research about the impacts of global change on the terrestrial biodiversity of both poles: t.co/v324Xt0UkE

How paleoenvironmental data improves climate models—the Amazon example Study opens up new ways of reconstructing human-environment interactions in the past.

A new study by @ukceh.bsky.social @khoproject.bsky.social et al. published at @natureportfolio.bsky.social #npjbiodiversity not only provides explanation for #biodiversity in the Amazon region, but also opens up new ways of reconstructing human-environment interactions in the past. How? Read more:
