RiffReporter#DarkDiversity zeigt, welche Arten einem Ort fehlen, obwohl sie dort leben könnten – und offenbart den menschlichen Einfluss auf #Biodiversität. Eine Studie belegt nun: Selbst in Schutzgebieten wie der Lüneburger Heide geht #Vielfalt verloren: @lohmann https://www.riffreporter.de/de/umwelt/dark-diversity-artenvielfalt-biodiversitaet-naturschutz-oekosysteme-pflanzen
ulrike_prinz#DarkDiversity macht nicht nur übersehene Bedrohungen für die Artenvielfalt sichtbar, sondern liefert auch wertvolle Ansatzpunkte für den #naturschutz. Denn viele dieser Arten sind regional noch vorhanden. Würden verbliebene Naturflächen besser vernetzt abgebaut, ließen sich diese Arten gezielt zurückholen. @riffreporter https://www.riffreporter.de/de/umwelt/dark-diversity-artenvielfalt-biodiversitaet-naturschutz-oekosysteme-pflanzen

Dark diversity reveals global impoverishment of natural vegetation
A study recently published in Nature indicates that human activities have a negative effect on the biodiversity of wildlife hundreds of kilometres away. A research collaboration led by the University of Tartu assessed the health of ecosystems worldwide, considering both the number of plant species found and the dark diversity – the missing ecologically suitable species.
BellingenNSWGlobal impoverishment of natural vegetation revealed by dark diversity - and humans are the reason
"Our activities have become a planet-shaping force, from changing the climate through our emissions to farming 44% of all habitable land. As our footprint has expanded, other species have been pushed to extinction."
