It seems that this journey is coming to an end! After many, many, many pages and countless hours working on this, I am quite happy to see my dissertation ready for submission🧾🖊️
We know that forest diversity influences the trait variation within tree species, so we decided to tell more about these exciting results during the #iDivConference2024@idiv
ALT Conceptual illustration of species/functional group nestedness and turnover, representing richness and compositional change between pairs of plots, and key hypotheses.
As this trip of 3.5 years is coming to and end and I will (hopefully) submit my dissertation soon, lately I have been drawing leaves and trees for the cover of the dissertation 🌳🍃
📸 Calling all photographers!
Show the world the beauty of our planet’s #biodiversity through your lens.
Capture how forests and trees support life, climate resilience, and restoration.🌳

Passend zum #WorldMentalHealthDay heute ist eine neue UniWiND-Publikation erschienen: Band 15 "Mentale Gesundheit in der Promotionsphase: Unterstützungsangebote von Graduierteneinrichtungen". Zur Publikation gehört außerdem ein Leitfaden für Beratende. uniwind.org/publikationen/pu…
🌳🌳Check our new study: Plant diversity enhances ecosystem multifunctionality via multitrophic diversity. It's about the overall effects and comparison between forest and grassland ecosystems with data from two large BEF experiments BEF-China and Jena.

A new study @NatureEcoEvo led by @XiaojuanLiu3 shows: Plant diversity can affect ecosystem functioning directly and by affecting other trophic levels. Data was derived from subtropical forests at the BEF China experiment as well as temperate grasslands @jena_experiment.
Last year we collected leaves in BEF-China to study the patterns of intraspecific variability along a diversity gradient. One year later we're excited to present the first results at #ESA2024
Tomorrow wednesday you can see my talk in OOS30 (room 104B) at 10:00!

Measurement campaign completed:
Stomatal conductance of 38 #tree species (27🌳&11🌲) over the course of the day!
Which trees close their #stomata when & what does this indicate about their #drought strategy?
Curious about the results! @agwirthweigelt@idiv#ARBOfun
How do nutrients and microbes influence species diversity effects? How does it translate into trees’ leaf functional traits 🌳🌿?

🩸🤕🩹Outdoor First Aid Training Course🩹🤕🩸 successfully completed. Thank you,@johanniter Regionalverband Dresden, for the fantastic training under realistic conditions in beautiful Saxon Switzerland
Life/career update 🦋🚨
I have joined the University of Göttingen to embark on my #PhD journey with Prof. Andreas Schuldt's group as part of @TreeDi1. Excited to work on insect herbivory, moth ecology and the field work in China! 🐛
