The figure shows an advertisement for the EGU 2026, which is taking place from 3rd to 8th May 2026. Abstract submission is open until Thursday, 15th January 1 pm CET. Deadline for support application is open until Monday, 1st December 1 pm CET. Below this information, four fotos of peatlands are displayed. On the top left, rannoch-rush is shown to grow among red peat mosses. On the top rigth, there is a blocked ditch in a grassland. On the bottom left, a paludiculture site with reed and cattail is shown. On the bottom right, there is a picture of a restored peatland with cotton gras and pools of open water.

🌊 New publication out!
Key message: Measuring dry bulk density is as important as measuring organic carbon content when estimating organic carbon stocks.
Shouldn't surprise, but needs to be said.

Atmospheric #VaporPressureDeficit structures #forest #bryophyte communities across #landscape

our new #microclimate research in @egubg.bsky.social #Biogeosciences journal

BIG congratulation to the very first paper from our #bryophyte lover Anna Růžičková!

doi.org/10.5194/bg-2...
Graphical abstract of the paper shoving spatial variability in atmospheric vapor pressure deficit driven by the interplay between temperature-driven patterns in saturated water vapor pressure and actual water vapor pressure across topographically diverse landscape of the National Park Bohemian Switzerland in the Czech Republic.

Our GDGT Cookbook paper is out now in Biogeosciences! @egubg.bsky.social

Thx Peter Bijl and @kasiasliwinska.bsky.social in spearheading on this. Hope it will help people who study #TEX86 for a bit!

Proudly present Figs 1 and 4 that I made for the paper 😎

Great pleasure working with y'all!

Influence of carbon source and iron oxide minerals on methane production and magnetic mineral formation in salt marsh sediments
Abstract. Salt marshes can emit significant methane to the atmosphere. These emissions are highly variable, but the cause of this variability is not well understood. Although methanogenesis should be…
