🧬⛰️ Un viaggio di 5.000 anni nella preistoria alpina: analizzato il DNA di 47 individui dal Mesolitico al Bronzo.
Ötzi, i primi agricoltori, i cacciatori-raccoglitori e le migrazioni dalle steppe raccontano la storia genetica delle Alpi orientali.

🦠 🐜 🐞 Woraus besteht der Boden im Gebirge? Hier gibt es einige Forschungslücken, wie eine Überblicksarbeit zeigt. Vor allem zu Viren, die oberhalb der Baumgrenze vorkommen, fehlen Studien. Diese wären aber wichtig, um die Auswirkung der #Klimakrise auf die #Biodiversität im Gebirge zu untersuchen.

Bodenbiologie im Gebirge als kritische Forschungslücke

Über die bodenbiologische Vielfalt im Gebirge weiß man viel zu wenig. Das zeigt eine im Journal Biological Reviews veröffentlichte Bestandsaufnahme unter der Leitung von Biolog:innen der Universität Innsbruck. Durch die Klimakrise bedingte Veränderungen sind aufgrund der Forschungslücken schlecht abschätzbar, warnen die Autor:innen, die für ihre Untersuchung gemeinsam mit 37 internationalen Expert:innen rund 1400 wissenschaftliche Arbeiten ausgewertet haben.

Global review on "Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline" by @nadinepraeg.bsky.social and me with many great #SoilBiodiversity researcher.

This is the first time such global information on #alpine soil microbiota, soil fauna, and (soil) biocrusts were synthesised.

Last field work day for 2024 🤠
Snowy, not too cold but very nice view over the #LTSER area Matschertal/Val Mazia.

Replaced a #SoilTemp logger at 2500m that was destroyed by cows...
No metal cage resists a cow's rage 🐄

Further, checked on of #EuracResearch|s #AlpEnv meteo station at 2400m.

Great talk of @jseeber.bsky.social at the #EuBiReCo 2024 in #Bozen / #Bolzano (#SouthTyrol).

She highlighted the efforts of the #Biodiversa+ Soil Pilot to find transnational monitoring schemes to assess #SoilBiodiversity (e.g. pitfall traps vs. eDNA).

Traditional meadow orchards are a good practice example for integrated #biodiversity #conservation in orchards.

Elia Guariento & Lisa Obwegs et al. from #EuracResearch|s Institute for #AlpineEnvironment show they support high multitaxonomic diversity.

Let’s preserve & learn from these agricultural practices and preserve a sustainable future! 🦋🐝🌹🦇
