The International #WomenInScience Day is approaching! In the run-up to 11 February, we’ll introduce some of our female researchers, who will share why they are passionate about #forests and why they chose a career in #science 💪👩‍🔬 Stay tuned to meet these fabulous #SUPERBwomen!

Treza Cordaro, PhD student KU Leuven and one of our #SUPERBwomen, likes a good challenge. #Forest restoration effects on soil #carbon remain shrouded in mystery, so Treza's quest involves digging for answers and collecting soil samples across Europe! #WomenInScience

#Soilscience is not just about soil, it’s also about people. Treza is presenting an update on the samples they already took in several demo areas, with support from our #forest experts from the #field. So curious to learn about the results from the lab!

How to monitor biodiversity in restored sites. Key topic in SUPERB that is being addressed through many different approaches in the field, modelling, and by consolidating evidence.

#Naturebasedsolutions: In our French demo area managed by INRAE Nouvelle-Aquitaine Bordeaux they plant #broadleaf #hedgerows along #pine #plantations to promote #biodiversity and provide #habitat and corridors for dispersion for #wildlife

Happy #WorldSoilDay! In our SUPERB project, we have passionate #soil #scientists investigating what is below ground in the #forest to unravel the soil’s oldest secrets and contribute to #healthysoils

Today at IUFRO we had a wealth of FNL presentations! First off, Ellen Desie presented her work biodiversity in soils. It’s time to restore from the ground up! Check the website of her brand-new research group here: restorefromthegroundup.com
