Using ecosystem science to address biodiversity loss and climate change
We help generate a better understanding of Earth’s ecology and aim to inspire responsible ecosystem restoration. At ETH Zurich's Crowther Lab, our team believes that conserving, protecting and restoring nature can help fight climate change and enhance human health and wellbeing.

The SEED Biocomplexity Index: How to Build a Nature Positive Economy
Просмотров 147День назад
For a nature-positive future, we need to value the whole complexity and diversity of nature over its parts - otherwise we may run the risk to create monocultures that only exacerbate #biodiversity loss and climate change. To do that, we need to be able to measure the holistic state of nature. This is where our new #SEED Biocomplexity Index, which we introduced at #COP16Colombia comes in - the f...
The fascinating world of trees' life strategies | Q&A with Dr. Lalasia Bialic-Murphy
Просмотров 138Месяц назад
🌳 #Trees have since long captivated human imagination due to their seeming "immortality". But in fact, trees do age and die! Knowing how they progress through life and how old they get can help us to better understand our #ecosystems, and how resources - such as #carbon or nutrients - are stored and distributed in them. In a big, collaborative research project with over 100 scientists from all ...
7 underrated forest restoration methods you need to know | Q&A with Dr. Leland Werden
Просмотров 183Месяц назад
#ForestRestoration practitioners, this one's for you! 🌳 In this Q&A we are talking with Dr. Leland Werden about 7 underrated, innovative methods that people need to incorporate more into their portfolio of #forest restoration techniques. From using economic species 💰 to adding #soil #microbiome or #biochar to the sites: these 7 methods are known for outperforming more commonly used methods in t...

Просмотров 522 месяца назад
Get to know our #postdoc Xianyu! 👋 Hailing from China, Dr. Xianyu Yang is part of our Fundamental Ecology group and primarily studies tree demographics - in other words, understanding what strategies trees employ for survival, growth, and reproduction, and how that then affects global #biodiversity. Watch the video to learn more about his research, why he switched from geography to #ecology, an...
The State of Forest Restoration across Latin America | Q&A with Dr. Rebecca Cole
Просмотров 3193 месяца назад
Much research is being done about how to do #EcosystemRestoration, but… what is really being done in practice, on the ground? To find out, our lab created a big survey which we distributed among practitioners of #forests, woodlands and #mangroves all across Latin America. We asked what kind of restoration approaches people used, what their motivation was, how much everything costs (so important...

We're back! We sat down with #PhDstudent Gayoung Yang to hear more about her #research on how different ecosystem types such as #forests and #agriculture impact each other (i.e. when it comes to crop yield or biomass). Gayoung also shares what she's passionate about in her free time, and answers, in proper tradition, a truly random question by previous #MeettheLab participant Josephine Reek! 00...

Get to know our #PhD student Josephine Reek! In #MeettheLab, we talked with her about her #research on #forest microclimate and vegetation cooling, and it can be applied, if she's always wanted to be a researcher, and what she would do with 10'000$ just for herself. 💰 Watch now to find out! 00:00 Introduction 00:11 Josephine's role at the lab 00:36 Why Josephine's work matters 02:08 What Joseph...
Is bird poop important for addressing climate change? | Q&A with Dr. Carolina Bello
Просмотров 2387 месяцев назад
Let's talk animal seed dispersal! This process, where frugivorous animals consume fruits and excrete the seeds as they move across the landscape, is really important to establish plant seedlings elsewhere - and therefore also important to restore fragmented #forests. Our postdoc Dr. Carolina Bello and a team of collaborators undertook research with bird data from the Atlantic Forest in Brazil t...

We talked about his research on autumn #phenology and why it's so important, what he enjoys about doing science, and why he urgently needs to go on vacation! ❄️ (FYI, this was filmed in winter… 😆) Watch above to learn more about Dominic 👆 00:00 Introduction 00:11 Dominic's role at the lab 00:42 Why Dominic's work ...
How plant mutualists shape biodiversity on islands vs. mainlands | Q&A with Dr. Camille Delavaux
Просмотров 1588 месяцев назад
Plant #biodiversity across the planet is often said to increase closer to the equator and decrease further away from it. But… is that always true? In our new research led by Dr. Camille Delavaux we actually found that oceanic islands make an exception to the rule - due to the lack of plant mutualists on them. What does that mean? Watch the video above to find out more! Find the paper on the top...
