Nice analysis of #Canada's forests using large-scale and long-term #data:
"#Tree diversity increases decadal forest #soil carbon and nitrogen accrual" by Chen et al (2023)
Quote: "...#conserving and promoting functionally #diverse forests could promote soil carbon and #nitrogen storage, enhancing both #carbon sink capacity and soil nitrogen fertility."
This is increasingly important to consider we impose larger and more frequent #disturbances on #forest #ecosystems.

It is an eerie #coincidence that perhaps deserves some #reflection. Stay tuned…more to come. #histodons #nyc

Humans societies are subject to #disturbances (like ecosystems). #Societal disturbances include #hurricanes, #floods, #epidemics, #nuclear accidents, #earthquakes, #wars, among others. The occurred in the past, will continue to occur in the future, & in fact, they contribute to shape #cultural evolution
1% of the disturbances to societies accounts for 87% of fatalities over the last 4000 years of human history

To ensure that forests continue to provide their valuable #ecosystem services in challenging times, we need to investigate #climatechange & #disturbances effects and project their future impacts in our forests.

Specifically I aim to understanding the role of #fire and other #disturbances in shaping species, populations, #communities, #landscapes, #biomes, and the #biosphere.
