Our excursion „Ecology of alpine environments“ has come to an end. With a fantastic group of students & teachers we got fascinating insights into elevational #biodiversity gradients, mountain specialist species and the highly alpine landscapes around Germany’s highest mountain - the Zugspitze.

Phd Student @globalchangeeco.bsky.social @umweltstiftung.bsky.social I am looking at long time spatial insect occupancy changes and try to understand how landscape, climate and conservation shapes biodiversity. https://wonderl.ink/@christianzehner
The @globalchangeeco.bsky.social team (@christianhof.bsky.social, @esme-ashe.bsky.social, @nicolas-willems.bsky.social, @christianzehner.bsky.social & Lars Landgraf) at #TIBS2026 - we really enjoyed great #biogeography science & the exchange with wonderful colleagues from all over the world.
A wonderful #TIBS2026 @tibsaarhus2026.bsky.social conference has ended. Thanks to the @au.dk team for organizing! And thanks to our @globalchangeeco.bsky.social team for the great company! We now look forward to #TIBS2028 im Beijing!
Congratulations to our @esme-ashe.bsky.social for winning one of the @biogeography.bsky.social poster award at #TIBS2026. Well deserved! 🎉
To the #TIBS2026 crowd and everyone else: we are hiring! Please spread the word and/or write to @ekengelhardt.bsky.social to hear more about her great project and her PhD position!

How has landscape heterogeneity changed and how did this influence biodiversity trends? Our MSc student Lars Landgraf presented first results on his poster at #TIBS2026.
I had the opportunity to present the first results of my Master’s thesis at #TIBS2026 My work focuses on grasshopper colouration along an elevational gradient. Great discussions and valuable feedback! Thanks to everyone who stopped by! 🦗⛰️
Amazing talk at #TIBS2026 by @katschiff.bsky.social from @zurelllab.bsky.social on the drivers of bird occupancy trends in North America. Climate change appears to be more important than land-use change, at least for the last 30years.

🧵 Thread👇 Heute Nachmittag im Fokus: Wissenschaftliche Karrierewege An der Uni wird oft nur das Karriereziel Professur diskutiert, aber der Weg dahin ist schwer, wenig planbar und die anderen Berufsoptionen sehr vielfältig (und zumeist sogar besser).

Jane Godall hat uns gelehrt, wie nah wir Menschen unseren nächsten Verwandten im Tierreich, den Schimpansen, sind und dass wir Teil der Natur sind, die uns schuf. Jetzt solle sie in Frieden ruhen. Ihre Lehre bleibt: Erhaltet die Natur! www.spiegel.de/panorama/leu...
Jane Goodall: Berühmte Schimpansen-Forscherin ist tot
Ihre Beobachtungen von Menschenaffen machten sie berühmt, über Jahre setzte sie sich für den Schutz von Tieren und Umwelt ein. Nun ist Jane Goodall gestorben. Sie wurde 91 Jahre alt.

A pleasure to be (co-)supervising these young folks @globalchangeeco.bsky.social, together with @esme-ashe.bsky.social and @christianzehner.bsky.social
We are happy and proud about our MSc students Lars Landgraf and Karl Gehrig presenting posters on their thesis on landscape heterogeneity and thermal butterfly behaviour yesterday at #gfoe2025
Very happy to have given a talk and presented my phd project at this year’s @gfoesoc.bsky.social about insect trends Grateful for the inspiring discussions and feedback on my research and my colleagues and supervisors @ekengelhardt.bsky.social @christianhof.bsky.social @globalchangeeco.bsky.social
