New paper in @Nature: a new system for classifying any ecosystem on Earth. It fills a big gap and aims to support efforts by @redlisteco, @UNBiodiversity, @IPBES and to assess the status of the world's ecosystems.

Do you remember the famous 97% study - that 97% of climate science supported the consensus on human-caused climate change? Well we have just published an update for 2012-2021 papers in the same journal, Environmental Research Letters. The figure is now... drumroll please...99.9%!
