ETH researchers use simulations to calculate that plants have significantly stabilised climate change for at least 390 million years. 🌎 #ClimateChange #CO2 #ClimateConditions brnw.ch/21wJjmp
Help digitise the Cambridge University Herbarium 🌿
Curatrix, Cambridge University Herbarium (CGE) is home to over 1.1m plant specimens collected over 300+ years. The team is looking for online volunteers to transcribe specimen labels & make them accessible to biodiversity researchers.

In 500 Jahren dürfte die Erde durch den Klimawandel kaum wiederzuerkennen sein, denn knapp die Hälfte der Landfläche auf der Erde könnte nicht mehr für Arten geeignet sein, die heute dort leben. Eine Studie mit Beteiligung von Dr. Bethany Allen, D-BSSE, ETH Zurich.

Please share! We have a PhD opportunity co-supervised between Ignacio Quintero and Hélène Morlon, to study the build-up of biodiversity gradients from total-evidence spatial diversification dynamics in École normale supérieure | PSL in Paris. If interested contact me at [email protected]!

Check out our take on the pre K-Pg decline of dinos in this beautifully written thread by lead author Dr. Bethany Allen - in short, the model assumptions really matter!
Our next event in the Palaeoverse #lecture series will be held Thurs, 25 April at 14:00 UTC! Laura Mulvey will present a talk entitled 'Assessing the adequacy of morphological models used in palaeobiology'
