The eventual end article for a special issue on climate change adaptation in @EvolLetters When and how can we predict adaptive responses to climate change? Our conclusion: difficult, but not impossible! academic.oup.com/evlett/arti…

When and how can we predict adaptive responses to climate change?

Abstract. Predicting if, when, and how populations can adapt to climate change constitutes one of the greatest challenges in science today. Here, we build

Deze week afl2 van Onze Natuur Doorgrond: duik het water in met Steven Van Belleghem, Robby Stoks, Filip Volckaert en Pieter Lemmens! 🐟🧪🌿 @SVBelleghem, @esee_lab @LBEG_Lab @SET_KULeuven @kuleuven_fwet onzenatuur.be/artikel/onze-n…

Onze Natuur Doorgrond: Aflevering 2. De wereld onder het wateroppervlak.

Onderzoekers van KU Leuven helpen mee de biodiversiteit bewaken. Zo meten ze  effecten van pesticiden op waterjuffers. Hun onderzoeksresultaten zijn zelfs de grondslag van milieuwetgeving!
