New article in @sciencemagazine reporting @IUCNRedList assessments for all tree species in the #AtlanticForest reveals a very worrying picture: a 🧵

Ten rules for robust taxonomy in ecological datasets
Ferreira de Lima et al.

How can we make taxonomy more robust in ecology? 🌿🔬
Our new paper explores 10 principles to strengthen taxonomic in ecological datasets
📖 Read the paper in:

New article co-authored by a large team of researchers from 28 countries! It updates the Global Wood Density Database (GWDD) and presents a comprehensive synthesis of the global extent of inter and intraspecific variation in wood density 🌲🌳🌴

New article published @JEcology uses a wide dataset for the #AtlanticForest to challenge classical ideas on #TropicalForest secondary succession. A thread

This classification using the Atlantic Forest data didn’t quite align with the traditional classifications of successional groups found in the literature

Our paper on using #eDNA from rainwater to study hidden biodiversity in #tropical #forest #canopies is now out in @ScienceAdvances! This method is a major step forward for the study and #conservation of this inaccessible compartiment. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Oi pessoal, vamos aos poucos migrar essa conta para o @bluesky. Vamos usar o handler 'treeco-db.bsky.social'. Nos vemos por lá!

Towards a global understanding of tree mortality
International Tree Mortality Network
Senf et al.
📖 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…

ALT Roadmap towards a global understanding of tree mortality. The five major steps integrate long-term field data with remote sensing and modelling techniques to build a fair, diverse and equitable system to monitor tree mortality at global scales. At its core, this system is built in a progressive fashion that over time allows for expanding current monitoring frameworks, both spatially and temporarily, to enhance scientific and social collaborations via interoperable databases that ultimately will help develop stronger predictions on tree mortality, its trends and main drivers.
Great study lead by @RicardoViani4 and team on the relevance of species diversity and composition in restoration plantings in the Atlantic Forest

Os impactos do PL 364/2019 serão GRAVES. Ele não só ataca TODOS OS BIOMAS, como acaba com a Lei da Mata Atlântica e de qualquer lei especial de proteção ambiental em todo território nacional! #SalveOCódigoFlorestal #SalveaMataAtlântica
🚨ALERTA! NOSSOS BIOMAS ESTÃO EM PERIGO!
A @camaradosdeputados vota agora o PL 364/2019, que acaba com a Lei da Mata Atlântica e libera geral o desmatamento em áreas 'não florestais' de todo o país. Acompanhe: isa.to/49jiIJP

Feliz de ter apresentado o contexto e resultados do projeto THREAT para a comunidade da @pg_esalq_usp 🙏

Mayday! Mayday!🚨
Biggest fear every day is that this building isn’t resisting much. This is the ICN + Natural History Museum facilities, holding the largest, historical scientific collections in Colombia. It’s falling apart. Structural damage, permanent leaks, fire/ flood risks
Grietas estructurales que se quieren volver historia de una tragedia. Este edificio se hunde y se quiebra mientras el agua nos cae encima #SOS_ICN
