Illustration of the virome with potential biotic and abiotic drivers (evolutionary factors, host range overlap, temperature/rainfall/UVm seasonal variation, life history traits, diet, movement ecology, coinfection and anthropogenic change)

Just heard an inspiring talk by @Virosphere2012 (aka Curtis Suttle from @UBC) about the ecological aspects of the planet‘s #virosphere. Who‘d think #viruses have a massive say in atmospheric #CO2!? Whole new level of #virology! #science #ecology #biodiversity
