Very pleased that data from the Satakunta forest diversity experiments have contributed to this new
@Nature paper led by Laurent Augusto & Marie Charru
which shows that tree species with conservative traits often outperform acquisitive species nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Researchers challenged longhorn crazy ants and humans with the same task: maneuvering a T-shaped object through two consecutive open doorways. Single humans always outperformed single ants, but ant groups could beat human groups. In PNAS: ow.ly/5vat50UwZAo
