  11. Wild Pigs Undermine Invasive Flora, While Native Deer Bolster It

    New research shows wild pigs help reduce invasive plants, while native deer help invasive plants grow more. This changes how we see these animals in forests.

  12. Wild pigs are surprisingly helping to reduce invasive plants in forests, while native deer are making the problem worse. This is the opposite of what scientists expected.

  16. Five years of satellite monitoring of forests in Germany found that trees that had been attacked by the gypsy moth delayed leaf production the following year, starving the emerging moth larvae and halving the subsequent leaf damage.

  21. Healthy forest floor; ground ivy, common ivy, enchanter's nightshade, etc. The herbaceous layer of a forest is perhaps the most undervalued, but the recognition of its importance to a wooded habitat is increasing.

  26. A study of 2.7 million trees in 17 forest plots located from 5 deg. S to 47 deg. N found that tropical forests had higher neighborhood diversity--trees had more different kinds of neighbors--in tropical plots. Three explanations for this phenomenon are proposed.

  31. The latest research results on stomatal dynamics from our PhD candidate (and quite proud of it :-) : the shade tolerant Fagus sylvatica , the common beech, shows more reactive stomatal responses on shade leaves than on sun leaves, suggesting an optimisation to increase CO2 uptake. The differences in stomatal dynamics were not related, as usually assumed, to differences in stomatal morphology.

  41. In Nyungwe National Park, even a fallen tree is not an ending 🌿

    It becomes a bridge, a nursery, a foundation for moss, ferns, insects, and new growth. One of the things I love about photographing rainforests is how clearly they show the cycle, nothing wasted, everything transformed.

    Nyungwe is one of Africa’s oldest rainforests, and you can feel that age in the air.
