By using advanced machine learning techniques an international team led by researchers at the University of Göttingen in Germany has reconstructed the distribution of plant diversity around the world and made…
Without world-wide crop diversity and its conservation, there would be no food and nutrition security. This is why efforts have to be made to preserve as many species and genetic variants as possible. These were the core…
Two major scientific publications have just revealed some surprising findings about the world’s plant biodiversity. The first refutes a widely accepted theory: the climate is not the only factor explaining biodiversity…
Africa's protected areas (PAs) are the last stronghold of the continent's unique biodiversity, but they appear increasingly threatened by climate change, substantial human population growth, and land-use change.
50,000 wild species meet the needs of billions of people worldwide, and for millions they are an important source of income. 70 per cent of the world’s poor are directly dependent on wild species. However, many species…
Germany’s environment and development ministries (BMUV and BMZ) are seeking to make the restoration of ecosystems a priority topic at the forthcoming UN nature summit, which is expected to be held in the People’s…
A team of Swiss and Canadian researchers has shown that plant communities can be reliably monitored using imaging spectroscopy, which in the future will be possible via satellite. This paves the way for near real-time…
Until now, measures to protect climate and biodiversity have often been developed in parallel, but many approaches can protect both climate and biodiversity.
