Supplementary feeding of #reindeer has expanded considerably across herding areas of Norway, Finland and Sweden with considerable consequences for animals and people.

Want to keep track of new Arctic & Alpine projects this summer? Herbivory Network follows many other research groups with great interest! Some listed here as a public service 🙂: TUNDRAsalad Vegetation Dynamics Group AK PopBio GEO Mountains (@geomountains.bsky.social) SoilTemp PeCHEc Project @UFZ_GCEF CHARTER Project /1of2

Two days of flying under good weather conditions so far. And already 3.5 TB of images. Let's hope we brought enough hard drives for backups ;) Anyway, here are some impressions from the first flights 🛩️ #PermaX AWI Media

CHARTER field work and summer plans Pic: from the Yamal peninsula, by Jeff Kerby National Geographic Society charter-arctic.org/fieldwork-roun…

Great article about climate warming challenges in strategies in the Arctic (in German): spektrum.de/news/renaturie…

🌟 I'm so happy to share with you the publication of my first lead-authored paper! 📄🌟 doi.org/10.3390/rs1316… @grosseguido.bsky.social Ingmar Nitze @[email protected] @TundraTime AWI Media Geo.X Research Network

The first PeCHEc paper on grazing impacts on permafrost is now available for discussion!

We‘re off to one more field campaign within this project - to northern Finland! - with Torben Windirsch @JSchwrzr

Another successful field day and more beautiful peat cores from different reindeer grazing intensities! - with Torben Windirsch @JSchwrzr

Field trip successful, now heading back with a total of 105 samples, 10 sites and 5 different reindeer 🦌grazing intensities 😎 - with Torben Windirsch @JSchwrzr

Our first project paper dealing with herbivory effects on permafrost carbon storage in northeastern Siberia has just been published in Frontiers in Environmental Science: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Proud to have published the first article on my PhD topic 😎 frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Attention #Bremen: Next week you can visit a really *cool* Pavillon on digital #Arctic Worlds at the Explore Science Festival @ktstiftung AWI Media UndercoverEisAgenten Permafrost Remote Sensing @ AWI ➡️ Meet @RungeAlexandra Tabea Rettelbach Torben Windirsch & experience permafrost from the satellite‘s eye

Was invited to the CHARTER Project General Assembly meeting, catching up with many colleagues and discussing interesting data and ideas from PeCHEc Project

While calculating carbon budgets is crucial in climate science, #ecology and its complexities can often cause some headaches. Torben Windirsch eases these by taking you into the #Arctic and shares how #reindeer can impact #permafrost there and more! blogs.egu.eu/divisions/cr/2…

This new study on reindeer impact on soil carbon storage revealed that animal impacts are very different for permafrost and non-permafrost areas but facilitates more productive vegetation @PecHEc_project AWI Medien CHARTER Project Read more here: borenv.net/BER/archive/pd…

How do animals affect Arctic soils in a warming climate, and how could this be used in land use management strategies? We explore this in a comprehensive way in our latest publication doi.org/10.1080/152304… Research Institute for Sustainability (RIFS) AWI Media
