⏰ Good news! Deadline for abstracts for #ATBC2024 in #Kigali extended to April 10, 2024! Don't miss your chance to present your research on "Achieving Inclusive Science for Effective Conservation, Adaptation, and Resilience in the Tropics". Details: conta.cc/3T3uVMf

Looking forward to a peaty #EGU24! Join us (Hanna Silvennoinen, Bärbel Tiemeyer ThünenPeat, Prof Sue Page #WeAreTheUniversity 💙💚, Lukasz Kozub & Franziska Tanneberger) on Wednesday: meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU24/session/… But there are even more #peatland sessions to be found... #PeatlandsMatter #Paludiculture

Si te interesa conocer las dinámicas de los bosques tropicales, su diversidad y los peligros a los que se enfrenta, desde el grupo PALAB del GEO3BCN - CSIC hemos lanzado varias propuestas que te pueden interesar!! #Amazonas #incendios #diversidad #lagos #degradacionambiental

¿Qué es MOMPAST? 🤷‍♀️🌐 La investigadora Encarni Montoya (Encarni Montoya) explica en este nuevo vídeo en qué consiste su nuevo proyecto, que estudia sistemas de producción alimentaria en ambientes vulnerables a inundaciones.

How sensitive is the Amazon rainforest to climate change?🤔That is what the new european project, Project PALOMA, is aiming to find out. In this video, Dael Sassoon, a Marie Curie postdoctoral research Fellow, introduces the project and its main objetives.

There's still time to register for the Data Management for Peatland Research and Monitoring hands-on workshop. 6 June; 11:00- 13:00 elixiruknode.org/event/dm-for-p…

They reveal that microbes living in bark, or in the wood itself are removing atmospheric methane on a scale equal to or above that of soil, making trees 10% more beneficial for climate overall than previously thought. naturerecovery.ox.ac.uk/?post_type=news

We estimate a total Amazonian #peatland extent of 251,015 km2, greater than the #peatlands of the #Congo basin. But large uncertainties remain due to field-data gaps. Euridice Honorio Scott Winton Tim Baker Dennis del Castillo Torres Encarni Montoya Ed Mitchard 🛰️ Jhon del Aguila Pasquel

Gaps such as these should be a high priority for new field sampling. Our new #Map can inform future #research into the vulnerability of #peatlands to #climatechange and #landuse change, which is likely to vary spatially across the #Amazon basin. Lydia Cole Freddie Draper Charlotte Wheeler
