4-year PhD position @unitartu open in our Ecotechnology lab @Estonia!
Topic: Implications of peatland forest management and agriculture to freshwater ecosystems and enhancement of mitigation measures like TWs.
Please apply before the 16th of February! sisu.ut.ee/ecotech/opportuni…
Ever wonder where N-fixing prokaryotes dwell globally?
Our @UtPlant and @tedersoo combined global sampling reveals N-fixer richness is mainly driven by bioclimatic variables and pH, but is also related to the community composition of other prokaryotes.

ALT A global map showing the richness of N-fixing prokaryotes to be highest in South Asia and South America.

🚨In a new Tansley review Marina Semchenko, Mari Moora, @frantecol, @quirkus44 and colleagues discuss the role of specialist and generalist plant‐microbial interactions🦠🌱and plant traits in plant‐soil feedback. See more👇: nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…
Have a look why you should think twice before using "classical" biomes when dealing with soil organisms 🦠🍄
It's time to include soil microorganisms into global terrestrial biome classification🌍! We propose global soil microbiomes in our new article⬇️: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… Many thanks to all of the collaborators!

Eesti kontekstis on aga eriti narr võtta ainus sotsiaalministeeriumi haldusala asutus, milles on puudunud juhtimisprobleemid ja on oma ülesannetega laitmatult hakkama saanud, ning lülitada see asutusse, kus puudub täielikult kvaliteedijuhtimine. Ja jälle ravimiohutus halveneb.

When trees & shrubs invade grassland, how does the community of soil-dwelling organisms respond?

Lisaks: kas võiks edaspidi unistada, et kõigi arvamusartiklitega, mis räägivad andmetest, käiks kaasas sarnane GitHubi repo. github.com/mvainre/ERRarvamu…
Kui me ei selgita, mida üks tulemus, arv või näidik tähendab, siis mõtestavad inimesed suurema tõenäosusega seda läbi oma murede, hirmude ja soovmõtlemise. err.ee/1608159019/maris-vain…
