ℹ️ Plant Ecology 🌱 Functional, spatial & temporal root dynamics 🩵 Snow, reindeer & climate change - based in Umeå Sweden
Crazy stuff. Never seen such a thing.
Today’s discovery while washing Trichophorum cespitosum roots: tiny coil spring structures! Possibly part of contractile roots? Nature’s engineering never ceases to surprise. #roots #ecology #peatlands

Throwback to our last summer field campaign in Northeast Finland.
Happy to host my phenomenal Finnish colleagues now here in Umeå and really dig into the topic of plant-root-methane-hydrology. Thanks to Eeva Järvi-Laturi and Kaisa Säkkinen and everyone else. It was truly a joyful summer.

Priority effects can be explained by competitive traits
Priority effects, the effects of early-arriving species on late-arriving species, are caused by niche preemption and/or niche modification. The strength of priority effects can be determined by the e...
