How do animals affect Arctic soils in a warming climate, and how could this be used in land use management strategies? We explore this in a comprehensive way in our latest publication doi.org/10.1080/15230430.202… @RIFS_Potsdam @AWI_Media
Out new paper just came out, investigating the ecosystem effects of reindeer grazing on soil carbon storage in northern Finland!
This new study on reindeer impact on soil carbon storage revealed that animal impacts are very different for permafrost and non-permafrost areas but facilitates more productive vegetation @PecHEc_project @AWI_de @CharterArctic

While calculating carbon budgets is crucial in climate science, #ecology and its complexities can often cause some headaches. @WindirschTorben eases these by taking you into the #Arctic and shares how #reindeer can impact #permafrost there and more! blogs.egu.eu/divisions/cr/20…

Was invited to the @CharterArctic General Assembly meeting, catching up with many colleagues and discussing interesting data and ideas from @PeCHEc_project

Are you 'Excited to share my new paper!'
Harsh truth:
Most people don't care
5 tips on how to tweet about your new paper to get real engagement

I love bogs for a million reasons. One is that they have removed carbon out of the atmosphere and locked it away in peat, thus cooling the Earth's climate for thousands of years. Today, we urgently need to protect bogs to protect our climate. Save a bog, save ourselves.

Es gibt Permafrost in Bremen! Zumindest bis morgen :) unter anderem könnt ihr da @AWI_de Forschende auf Expedition in die Arktis in VR begleiten! #outreach #SciComm @RungeAlexandra @WindirschTorben @UAgenten

Hot off the press, our article about molecular #biomarkers in the Batagay megaslump. Biomarkers clearly differ in glacial and interglacial deposits. Fast #permafrost degradation releases well-preserved organic matter. @strauss_jens @iso_topel @CourtinJeremy @grosse_guido et al.

Did my first public/outreach today at @PlanetariumBER, had an absolute blast!

Attention #Bremen: Next week you can visit a really *cool* Pavillon on digital #Arctic Worlds at the Explore Science Festival @ktstiftung @AWI_Media @UAgenten @Permafrost_RS
➡️ Meet @RungeAlexandra @tabearettelbach @WindirschTorben & experience permafrost from the satellite‘s eye
Proud to have published the first article on my PhD topic 😎

Our first project paper dealing with herbivory effects on permafrost carbon storage in northeastern Siberia has just been published in Frontiers in Environmental Science: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Field trip successful, now heading back with a total of 105 samples, 10 sites and 5 different reindeer 🦌grazing intensities 😎 - with @WindirschTorben @JSchwrzr

Another successful field day and more beautiful peat cores from different reindeer grazing intensities!

First core of the trip!
Reached 135 cm on an intensively used winter reindeer feeding area. Main goal 1/3 reached!

We‘re off to one more field campaign within this project - to northern Finland! - with @WindirschTorben @JSchwrzr

Greenland's ice sheet is facing a disaster. It's melting twice as fast as usual.
Great article about climate warming challenges in strategies in the Arctic (in German): spektrum.de/news/renaturieru…
