Interested in multi-trophic population trends from decadal long time series in the Wadden Sea? I will give a talk on Friday at #OSM26 about the approach behind our recent paper on synthesizing population trends: tinyurl.com/2tbs5j83 🦀🐟🦠🐤 Excited to discuss with you afterwards!
Read our new paper, in which we explore the importance of response diversity for maintaining community stability in the context of pulse disturbances, using a combination of model simulations and meta-analysis: doi.org/10.1111/ele.... w @hillebr1.bsky.social @owpet.bsky.social & Shyamolina Ghosh
Species Interactions Determine the Importance of Response Diversity for Community Stability to Pulse Disturbances
Caculations of response diversity can be based on species fundamental responses in isolation or their realised responses in the community using metrics of response dissimilarity and response divergen...

New paper out 🌊🪱🔬 We investigated the microbiome of the polychaete Lanice conchilega. We identified Endozoicomonas as a key component of the microbiome, which is subject to seasonal changes. Read the full story here: www.nature.com/articles/s41... @icbm-uol.bsky.social 🦕

Please share this with anyone who may be interested in a post-doc in Germany: jobs.awi.de/Vacancies/20... This is quite an exciting opportunity to push the boundaries of what is known regarding the molecular basis of the formation and demise of photosymbiotic relationships in marine habitats.
🌿 New paper out ! We explore how elevation shapes microbial communities in salt marshes—linking prokaryotes & microeukaryotes across natural and experimental settings. Read more 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #MicrobialEcology #SaltMarsh

🚨 I’m hiring a postdoc for Fall 2025 with experience in microbial ‘omics data analysis and phylogenetics/genomics. Projects will be centered around ancient microbial ecology & evolution. Click here for more information: bpb-us-e1.wpmucdn.com/wp.txstate.e... Please share, thank you 🙏🏻
I’m thrilled to be opening my lab at TxSt @txst.bsky.social this January!! We will be studying early microbial ecology and evolution. 🦠 🌎 🧬 I’m extremely grateful for the support of my mentors, colleagues, family, and friends! ❤️ Contact me for openings. Website to come soon. #newPI #1stgen
🚨 🌡️🌊 Warming seas will push Antarctic phytoplankton closer to their thermal optimum, altering growth and stoichiometry. Species-specific growth performance varied whether the species grew in monocultures or in communities. Read more: doi.org/10.1002/lno.... @cplum.bsky.social 🦕
Nutrient‐dependent thermal response in growth and stoichiometry of Antarctic phytoplankton
Rising temperatures and altered nutrient supply are expected to influence future phytoplankton thermal performance and community dynamics. The thermal response of phytoplankton has been shown to be i...
