Very excited to be presenting preliminary results of my master's research with @salgoteam.bsky.social at #BES2024! Find me at the poster session on Weds (A17.10) to chat about life stage-dependent plant competition and quantitative modelling of its impact on community dynamics and coexistence 🌿📈

An illustration depicting the key idea of the research project. The text in the top left reads "PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE?" in all caps. Below are two characters representing large reproductive individuals of different species of Asteraceae, and two characters representing small individuals of these species. The large individuals are drawn engaging in a fight in an argument, as well as the small individuals. However, the fight is only happening between individuals of the same life stage.

Thinking With Moss is a project I've been working on for the past few years w/ @eayers0.bsky.social‬ & @aansari86.bsky.social.

In collab w/ NYBG, we explore the digitization of botanic collections, and the invisible or under attended histories of the natural sciences.

Why moss? We embrace moss' ambiguous, downtrodden place in botanic history as a starting point for developing questions of colonial worldviews, systems of classification, and representational challenges and opportunities.

#Rewilding has seen success above-ground, but little attention has been paid to below-ground communities. This #worldsoilday we focus on the importance of mycorrhizal communities, through @jedsol.bsky.social research at the Knepp Wildland. @ecioxford.bsky.social @oxfordgeography.bsky.social

Revealing the compositional and functional responses of mycorrhizal fungi to rewilding at the Knepp Wildland

Using novel eDNA methods to understand if rewilding is also serving below-ground communities, focusing on 'keystone' mycorrhizal communities and their functions.

It's 1st December... which means it's time for my merry #mistletoe advent calendar! One mistletoe fact a day up to Christmas (without repeating myself from last year...) 🎄🌱🧪 (1/26)
