I am planning to for the next IAVS! It will be hosted in Gijón, Spain!
Are you working with #fossilpollen? Sign up! There will be a session about vegetation history😉
The website for the 68th Annual Symposium of the International Association for Vegetation Science has been launched:
2026gijon.iavs-meetings.org
Many thanks to Borja Jiménez-Alfaro and his colleagues for this invitation.
See you in June in Gijón, on the northern coast of Spain.

Super cool! Very relevant to project of my PhD student (Bryn Novio), where we are going to look at this through #Holocene #fossilpollen #HoloceneDiversityTrends
🌳 New findings 🌳

Phylogenetic diversity cannot be used as a proxy for functional diversity in vascular plant communities 🌲🌳🌴🌵🌱🍀🌾🌼 We used the #sPlot database & found a pronounced decoupling between phylogenetic & functional diversity ⬇️

Global decoupling of functional and phylogenetic diversity in plant communities - Nature Ecology & Evolution
Functional diversity and phylogenetic diversity are expected to be positively correlated. Here the authors show that the covariation between these metrics in vascular plant communities around the worl...

Looking at the past to understand future. What can 56 mya teach us? Fossil pollen tells a story of migration, adaptation and survival.
