🌊 Rock sponges in the Eastern Mediterranean provide crucial deep-sea habitats. With the increasing anthropogenic impacts in deep waters, #SponBIODIV (#BiodivProtect) highlights the urgent need for further mapping, monitoring, and conservation efforts. doi.org/10.1007/s12526…
❄️ Alpine glaciers are retreating, impacting plant biodiversity and ecosystem services. #PrioritIce (#BiodivProtect) shows this causes up to a 7x decrease in plant contributions to air quality, soil health, and nutrient regulation. doi.org/10.1002/pei3.7…

🌾 #FunProd (#BiodivHealth) finds high-intensity farming raises yields but harms biodiversity. Bees boost rape pollination & yields, but predator-driven pest control is less clear. Ecological intensification needs tailored approaches. doi.org/10.1007/s10980…
🐟 Rhodolith beds off Brazil's coast boost fish density, biomass & richness, key for marine ecosystems. But #RESTORESEAS (#BiodivRestore) data from Costa das Algas Marine Protected Area shows threats from mining & trawling, calling for stronger protection. doi.org/10.1007/s41208…
🧽 #SponBIODIV (#BiodivProtect) finds sponge reproduction may be influenced by microbiomes. Early oocyte development in some species aligns with microbial shifts linked to nutrition and immunity. doi.org/10.1128/mbio.0…
🛣️ #ASICS (#BiodivClim) shows roads disrupt mountain ecosystems, altering soil, vegetation, and fungal communities. They favour generalist fungi and reduce plant-fungal network complexity by 66-95%. doi.org/10.1111/mec.17…
