Super excited to share our study led by @Eeekology in @Nature where we found that animal herbivores prefer to eat nitrogen-fixing trees. This presents a major cost, constraining nitrogen-fixing species in tropical forests.

Plants are powerful -- the geographical range of plants influenced long-term climate. Fun study to be involved in led by @KhushGr with @bjwmills & @KatieField4

The geographic spread of plants drove ancient #ClimateChange by modifying continental #weathering & #carbon burial rates. @KhushGr, @bjwmills, @palaeoleeds @KatieField4 investigate this effect using a new coupled #VegetationModel nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Do herbivores prefer nitrogen-fixing plants over non-nitrogen-fixing plants? The answer might help to explain the limited nitrogen availability on land go.nature.com/3hwun32

"Herbivores can limit nitrogen availability on land" -- super cool analysis and questions raised by @joywinbourne and @lmcculloch9 in their News & Views on our article.

Herbivory costs drive the scarcity of nitrogen-fixing tropical trees.
N-fixers are preferentially hit by herbivores, potentially limiting the tropical carbon sink.

Just out in @Nature: Herbivory on nitrogen-fixing trees limits the ability of tropical forests to grow & store carbon; constrains the tropical forest carbon sink. @SABatterman @LSComita #WillBarker @stri_panama

These windows were driven by continental dispersion, paleolatitude of continental area and a lack of glaciation. Their timing coincides with initial land plant expansion 🌿and later radiation of angiosperms 🌼🌻🌹🌺 3/3

Using a new dynamic vegetation model, @KhushGr shows that there were *two* major climate windows of opportunity during the Ordovician and Jurassic-Paleogene for plant biomass expansion... 2/3

Delighted 🥳to share @KhushGr's exciting first, first author paper in @NatureComms: Climate windows of opportunity for plant expansion during the Phanerozoic @bjwmills @SABatterman @YGodderis @PPS_UoS @ESSILeeds @LeverhulmeTrust @NERCscience 1/3

We did it! If you like #modelling and #plants check out our simple one called FLORA 🌱💚and how it performs over the Phanerozoic.

This was a fun collaboration led by @KhushGr on opportunities for plant evolution and expansion over Earth's long-term history.

The work of amazing researchers like @KateClancy has shown that ~64% of field researchers report harassment while in the field, and 22% —ONE IN FIVE-- report assault. Sexual misconduct is pervasive and systemic in fieldwork.
