A new study confirms #oldgrowth #forests (>75 years) are better for freshwater #invertebrates and #vertebrates than young forests.
Diverse #habitats in older trees support more unique and specialized aquatic species π

We are asking: how do water levels π¦ and habitat structure π± shape these invasion patterns?
Understanding this helps guide better wetland restoration and management.

We aim to understand how wetland hydrology π§ and habitat structure πͺ΅πΎ influence the degree of invasion.

Supporting home gardens (especially with traditional/indigenous practices) is not just sentimentalβitβs a practical conservation tool.
Protect home garden designs that maximize structural complexity: multiβstrata trees, mixed plantings, integrating animals.
Our recent work published in Loris shows that home gardens are key players in conserving biodiversity AND delivering climate, social, and economic benefits.
