Sustainable Agricultural Systems & Engineering Lab

Exciting to have the first #writing retreat with the ⁦@SASE_Lab⁩ at the beautiful 1000 Island Lake 🏝. A productive and nice time with a great #team 👇🏻👇🏽👇🏾

Science and Society article out online now Integrating agricultural diversification in China’s major policies by Xueqing He, Wolfgang Weisser, Yi Zou, Shenggen Fan, Thomas Crowther and @tomcwanger dlvr.it/SVtDWP

@MToledoMX @TomCWanger @TEDx Very happy to have you @MToledoMX 😃

How does rock climbing and chocolate link to ecosystem monitoring and the future of sustainable agriculture? Find out at @TomCWanger's @TEDx Talk at the first-ever TEDxYouth event in #Hangzhou. youtube.com/watch?v=Dn_ef_…

For #sustainableagriculture it is critical to prioritize the most effective measures for #biodiversityfriendly agriculture to maintain ecosystem services and yield. Teja Tscharntke led our artile in @Trends_Ecol_Evo: 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 lnkd.in/ex7MzWhM

Our work on #handpollination and #sustainblecocoa production in #Indonesia and #Brazil is featured in the 6th episode of the @BBC series "Follow the Food’. A big thank you @twofourtweets and BBC for your interest in our work! bbc.com/future/bespoke… @BBCNewsPR

#JobAlert Please RT! We are offering a Research Assistant Professorship position to coordinate our China Rice Network and advance research on #biodiversity monitoring in diversified #rice systems. Interested? Contact @TomCWanger @Westlake_Uni See: tinyurl.com/2km44zne

#PaperAlert What do #bats do at night? our postdoc #KevinDarras and collaborators reveal the unseen/unheard business of bats using novel #BatPointSounds method. A collaborative effort @efforts_crc990 @FuncAgroEco @Westlake_Uni @uniGoettingen @ClaraZemp onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Bat point counts: A novel sampling method shines light on flying bat communities. Check out Kevin's new paper on how to sample flying mammals 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Leaf nitrogen concentrations (LNC) are critical to characterize carbon fixation potential of plants and remote sensing can help to detect LNC. Take a look at our new paper on a new transfer learning method to assess LNC across different plants 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 authors.elsevier.com/a/1eA1v7qzStoM…

🌱 In advance of tomorrow's science symposiums, let's get thinking about the role of #biodiversity in sustainable #agriculture. Discussions to be moderated by @MaasBea @TomCWanger @usys_ethzh @BiovIntCIAT_eng See you at 9:30am CET! #EatGrowSave

@Estelle_Ravel @TomCWanger @ThioRosin Fantastic @Estelle_Ravel and @ThioRosin - we can't wait to hear the interesting stories from this independent dialogue.

Recording of the #ATBC2021 #Symposium: The Role of Agroforestry Systems in the Decade of UN Ecosystem Restoration youtube.com/watch?v=BhBWxZ… More info at: atbc2021.org/symposia/the-r…

Join @ingenic_org's InCocoa webinar to discuss the #FutureOfChocolate. @TomCWanger will be speaking about cocoa #agroforestry, #cocoapollination, and the #GlobalAgroforestryNetwork

Don't miss it: #SatLab members @Estelle_Ravel & @TomCWanger will participate in the #UN Food System Summit Dialogue 2021 They aim to bring together rice & vanilla farmer representatives in #Madagascar to dialogue about climate-related issues they face summitdialogues.org/dialogue/44044/

@Westlake_Uni Hands on the work!

Two exciting days on the field with the #SatLab crew. We established a large semi-field experiment to investigate the effect of #microplastic #pollution on #soil #plant #pollinator interactions. Stay tuned for updates! #AcademicTwitter #fieldwork #china @Westlake_Uni

Hello #academictwitter We are a multi-disciplinary research group led by @tomcwanger in @Westlake_Uni, #China We develop tech-innovations in world agric. systems. Our goal is to provide #sustainable solutions to #globalfood challenges. Follow us, #RT and spread the word.

@MToledoMX Looking very much forward to having you @MToledoMX

Agricultural production depends on #pollination and for some crops like #cocoa, #vanilla, and #fruits it is essential to produce yields. @_HannahRitchie at @OurWorldInData provides a very nice overview in this new article: ourworldindata.org/pollinator-dep…
