From our latest @FunEcology paper, did you know that small mammals now make up the biggest portion of the remaining mammals' biomass on land with 98 million tons? We have now lost 60% of large and 30% of small herbivore mammals biomass. Find out more besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Hi @NatureClimate could you please retweet this post?

Our new study shows that the Biological Carbon Pump (plankton&fish) helps sequester nearly 3 Gt of carbon in the ocean each year where it remains stored for at least 50 years - This ecosystem service is worth $2 trillion USD. Link to article rdcu.be/efknr

Does any one have access?

@human_hotel @pleo Has your website closed?

Nobody says it better than your (happy) customers! On Human Hotel: "We tried it ourselves at @pleo and felt 33% more socially connected with each other after the experience." blog.pleo.io/en/business-tr…

We also show that actual evapotranspiration is the most important driver of mammals biomass and explains between 49% and 64% its variation. Outside Africa and the Tropics, biomass hotspots before the industrial revolution were in areas today dominated by humans.

We show that natural ecosystems could have sustained a potential wild herbivore wet biomass of 330 Mt (95% CI: 245–417), comprised of 193 Mt (95% CI: 177–208) by large species (body mass >1–10 kg, depending on functional group) and 138 Mt (95% CI: 68–209) by small species.

@alexbraczkowski @L_Santini_Eco The problem is not that scientists don't want to get their hands dirty, the problem is that there's very little funding for "basic" science for counting and observing nature. So young scientists are trained for doing desk work and this is unfortunate!

Yep! Turns out getting into the field and collecting the data is a ton of work, needs a lot of money, and even more collaboration. We just surveyed carnivores across 6 PAs in Uganda driving nearly 30 000 km and spending over 7000 trap nights with camera traps. More scientists need to get their hands dirty and stop fiddling with continent or even nationwide models which can be dismantled in a few minutes….

@Oceanicu_carbon @Natalya_Gallo @SDGbergen @UiB @NORCEresearch @WMUHQ @P_Schnoor @MaryWisz Please tag me, I am following oceanICU, thanks.

@Revkin @erleellis @JacquelynGill @ymalhi If you just remove the elephants, but that's a rare case because illegal logging and hunting go together, then of course changes will take longer.

Sheesh. Any measurement of carbon impacts of mammal-driven landscape changes like these has to look with a much longer timeline, I’d posit. But worth checking with @erleellis @JacquelynGill @ymalhi @fabe_it and the like… A different analysis: slu.edu/news/2023/janu….

@Revkin @erleellis @JacquelynGill @ymalhi It depends on what happens in the forest, if an extreme event happens, if there's selective logging, a fire, a drought, then regeneration starts quicker and if you don't have elephants around then the forest will look much different in even 5-10 years.

@For_Mod_Lab I remember when I spent a whole day to create this animation for an ED2 simulation, and then I pressed the delete button because I didn't know what to do with it! 😂

@VodafoneIT Ciao, come si fa a mandarvi un messaggio in privato per richiedere una copia del mio contratto?

@BorisCurto Ciao Boris, siamo a tua disposizione per darti assistenza; ti invitiamo a mandare un DM con il tuo numero per consentirci di effettuare le opportune verifiche. Grazie, ^SB.

Sarebbe bello che anche @TIM_Official @VodafoneIT @FASTWEB e gli altri operatori italiani togliessero le tariffe delle chiamate verso l’Ucraina come fatto in tanti altri paesi.

@LukeLPowell @BlaiVidiella @RainforestTrust @PedroBeja12 @RicardoNature Glad to read something about Angola, such a huge country with huge diversity but not enough research to help conserve it.

The #Namba mountains in #Angola represent the last ~700 ha of Afromontaine forest in southwestern Africa, and they are imminently threatened by fire. Check out our article in NEE. go.nature.com/404eX76 #ornithology @RainforestTrust @PedroBeja12 @RicardoNature

The key to our future? Nature itself! 🌱🌊 With #rewilding, we can help ecosystems heal (land and aquatic) and fight climate change at the same time. We need to act now - there's no time to lose! #climateaction 🌍 i.e.🐺🐴🐋🦬🐘🐟 See @SchmitzLab et al doi.org/10.1038/s41558…

@vsbuffalo @ErgoDoxEZ Where do you put your mouse/trackpad?

I finally got and configured my @ErgoDoxEZ Moonlander keyboard. I enjoy it more than my older Ergodox, but like it, it’s a game changer if you sit and type a lot.

@ciais_philippe I could make some nice risotto with those!

I will never return to the lab 😛

@NinaRaoult @MSCA @UniofExeter @coxypm Congratulations Nina!

After 5 enriching years in France, I am exciting to be starting a @MSCA fellowship at @UniofExeter! I will miss Paris but am looking forward to being nearer the sea! Working in @coxypm’s team, I will use data assimilation to reduce the uncertainty in climate-C cycle projections.

I randomly found out that our paper was featured on the cover of @NatureClimate July issue! nature.com/nclimate/volum…
