Delighted to share our paper (with Plant Evolutionary Ecology lab) in Journal of Ecology led by @heredia_ac1985! Cristina did a massive experiment testing how root litter decomposition is affected by litter origin AND plant community composition. (1/4) besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

New paper out from my colleague Marco @soilecologist on belowground pitfall traps! Very cool and easy method to evaluate soil mesofauna, and a great alternative to traditional Tullgren/Berlese method! Check it out! 🐛🐜🕷🪲🔬🥳 doi.org/10.1016/j.pedo…

What are the impacts of defoliation & fertilisation on grassland #plant traits? A new paper led by Yan Liu shows opposing effects on root traits & their regulation of #soil #ecosystem functioning! W/ Irene Cordero & Richard Bardgett besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

#BES2023 here we go!!! So excited to be back at BES! Come and say hello if you are around 😃. I have a talk at 10:30 today in plant-soil interactions session! Join me if you are interested in learning about microbiomes, drought, land use and plant performance 🌱🍄🦠Soil Ecology Lab UoM

Nice to get a first glimpse into how land use and plant growth strategy affect drought resistance in study by Irene Cordero Soil Ecology Lab UoM #BES2023

If you never seen ecologists dancing , here you go 🪩🕺🏻💃🏻#BES2023

Plenary this morning with Jane Stout finishing with a positive note and a message of hope that things are changing, and that we, as ecologist, are supper important to help with this change! #BES2023 💪

Are you interested in ecology and looking for an internship in the Swiss Mountains? We are looking for a motivated candidate to explore with us the effects of novel plant consumers on plant communities, and work with us in the BugNet in Davos. m.refline.ch/273855/1613/pu…

Important paper led by @arthurbroadbent Soil Ecology Lab UoM showing that snow removal and shrub encroachment, both consequences of rapid climate change in mountain ecosystems, cause a mismatch between plant and microbial N cycling processes. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?… Come and work with Dr Filipa Cox and join our lab group. Here is yet another awesome opportunity to look into the ecology of plant-fungal interactions.

In our next #WSLBiodiversitySeminar, Irene Cordero will present her research on #SoilBiodiversity and its response to drought and land management. Join us in person or online! biodiversitycenter.wsl.ch/en/events/deta…

🗓️ Tomorrow Irene Cordero will present her work on soil biodiversity, drought, and land management at our Biodiversity Seminar Series. Irene joined WSL Umweltforschung @wslresearch.bsky.social last year, so she will tell us about her past work and future plans here with us. Check the link below for more info

Hi Twitter followers! Tomorrow I present an overview of my research! Why not join? 😃 Free for everyone online. biodiversitycenter.wsl.ch/en/events/deta… #soil #biodiversity #drought 🌱🔬🦠🍄

Last week, Irene Cordero presented her research on #SoilBiodiversity and drought at our seminar series at WSL Umweltforschung @wslresearch.bsky.social. It was an insightful and lively seminar with many questions from the audience. The recording is now available here: youtu.be/FR3fKN97hJk?fe…

📌Are you eager to learn how soil microbiota protect plants from drought stress? Do you have a passion for teaching? Joins us @RIBESresearch for a 5-yr Educational PhD! Info and application: ru.nl/en/working-at/… Please RT🙏

Happy to see this chapter of my thesis published. 🌲🍄🦠Detecting changes in soil properties that could be highlighted as indicators of passive restoration success of abandoned agricultural lands.

It’s out!! We subjected soils from 30 different locations across Europe to extreme events and found that soil fungal and bacterial communities showed consistent responses that could be predicted from their origin! nature.com/articles/s4158…
