Robins will flock to your garden this winter if you do 1 thing https://www.allforgardening.com/1525047/robins-will-flock-to-your-garden-this-winter-if-you-do-1-thing/ #Christmas #compost #CompostHeap #garden #gardeners #gardening #LeafLitter #ROBINS

The #woodlouse #Oniscus #asellus (Oniscidae) is originally distributed in Western #Europe, but today one of the most common isopods in #CentralEurope, occuring e g. in dead wood or #leaflitter and is neozoon in North America. D. T. Bilton (2008), names two morphologically/ecologically different #subspecies, O. asellus asellus and O. asellus #occidentalis.

How does leaf litter decomposition change through the seasons in temperate streams & forests? Cereghetti & Altermatt tracked microbial and invertebrate decomposition across a full year, revealing how timing, temperature, litter quality & ecosystem type shape this key process!

Leaf Litter
"The piles of leaves that have formed actually serve to create winter homes for many different species of caterpillars and pupae where they spend the colder months safe from freezing temperatures and predators."

#Leaflitter increases #biodiversity in yards, parks....#birds that forage on the ground have plenty to eat. My yard has no grass, is full of trees, leaves and plants that I do not cut back in winter. They all provide #habitat, texture, contrast and color. Use black oil sunflower and safflower at your feeders. High quality seed (Scarlett) w lots of nutrition. Enjoy winter, help feed the birds, other critters too fehttps://blog.mybirdbuddy.com/post/leave-leaves-alone-for-boosted-backyard-diversity

A new look at decades of data from #MuseumCollections & #surveys of #LeafLitter #ants in #Florida #reveals a steady #decline in #NativeAnts , #simultaneous #increase in #nonNative ants—even in #protected natural areas of the state, researchers report.
#Reported in the journal Current #Biology , the findings point to a potential future devoid of native ants, the #researchers said.

Howdy! Just popping on by to hedge my bets as twitter implodes. I'm a #PhDstudent at #SUNYESF working on #conservationBiology and #biogeography of #ants #landSnails & other #invertebrates often in #Palau #Belau #Micronesia

My research often involves #ecology & #evolutionaryBiology in some combination, and I've used a few different tools/systems, including #bioinformatics #fossils #leafLitter sampling, simulations, etc. I'm a pretty shoddy coder, but know a wee bit of #Rstats and #JuliaLang

Visible here is a #Julida #diplopode, a taxon with ca 750 species worldwide. #Diplopods are important decomposers of #deadwood or #leaflitter; their high food requirements and corresponding excrements make them important #humusproducers.
