DragNet Global

... and a bonus photo of Magic the field dog.

Fun pix of newly tilled @DragNetGlobal plots @IWLA_org #BethesdaChevyChaseChapter in #Maryland #USA via #BetsyvonHolle. Looks like a great crew!

.@Clarivate with all the effort you put into #HighlyCitedResearcher exclusions, please include high author# pubs that document meaningful coauthor contributions. Some research relies on large collaboration. I wrote a discussion paragraph for you: doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

Second day in the rain, feet in the grass collecting plant biomass data with @xraynaud and @LeGalliard_Lab @iEESParis. Some wet envelopes on this Tuesday 🌧🌧🌧 @DragnetGlobal @NutNetGlobal

Third sampling day @NutNetGlobal and @DragnetGlobal study plots with @Biologie_ENS students! More than 20 plots sampled today

COMO @DragnetGlobal sieving. We upped our game and got a radio this year. Send us your playlists! We have hours of sieving to go! @MSUNatSci @KelloggBioStn @KBSLTER @CedarCreekESR

First day of data collection on the @NutNetGlobal and @DragnetGlobal experimental plots with @LeGalliard_Lab. Very hot under the sun! Measuring plant biomass 😀

Fin des mesures @NutNetGlobal @DragnetGlobal sous forme de sprint avec les étudiants @Biologie_ENS et @xraynaud @BPerezLamarque @LeGalliard_Lab. Inventaires, mesures de LAI et entretien des parcelles 💪💪💪

Our 3rd & final year of ⁦@DragnetGlobal⁩ #disturbance ⁦@CedarCreekESR⁩ — in the books. I’m so excited to study the recovery!! Thanks, ⁦@e_seabloom⁩ & ⁦@BorerLab⁩. ⁦@UMNresearch⁩ ⁦@umncbs⁩

It is probably a bad idea to have a @DragnetGlobal site in the wild Louisiana. How am I supposed to break into this plot to do survey? All Lonicera vines over the whole plot. Some plots are worse with all the black berries.

En nuestro sitio experimental @DragnetGlobal estudiamos la sucesión ecológica en pastizales bajo distintos regímenes de disturbios y fertilización. En particular, buscamos entender que hay detrás de la exitosa invasión de Festuca arundinacea, una sp forrajera, y cómo frenarla 🌿

Thanks @BorerLab crew for a fun & productive day of sampling @DragnetGlobal & @NutNetGlobal @CedarCreekESR. @e_seabloom @BorerLab

Also, exciting new grazing exclosures co-located with our @DragnetGlobal plots. Hopefully will be part of @NutNetGlobal and will link into our @ECT_UK long term experiment plots.

Resurveying our @DragnetGlobal plots. Unsurprisingly a big difference between disturbed and undisturbed... far more plant species in disturbed plots too.

Thx to this support, we will expand our AI-species identification pipelines (in collabo with @stan_harpole @idiv) from our @DragnetGlobal plots to some of the @DroughtNet plots @WythamWoods - with @Erola_Fenollosa & Andy Hector @OxfordBiology

NEW BLOG: Our Institute is for the 2nd year part or Research Network called DRAGNet. The aim is to monitor global and local impacts of global change on grassland ecosystems. Check out also @DragnetGlobal ecosystems.czechglobe.cz/globalni-vyzku…

And that's a wrap: Y3 of @DragnetGlobal @ @WythamWoods done! V tangible treatment differences. Now time to get busy with more UAV and autonomous @oxfordrobots monitoring @Erola_Fenollosa Man Qi, Marcel Masso, Aryaman Gupta, Jessie McLean @hawesie @e_borer

New scientific adventure w/ @LauGherardi! He invited me to collaborate on new adaptation of @NutNetGlobal focused on disturbance: #DragNet! Today w/ help from Nona & docents @stanfordjrbp, we set up the study protocol & plots! Super excited to join #DragNet & study disturbance!
