You're looking at a possible FIRST-EVER iNaturalist record of this delightfully fuzzy moth, scientific name Lindnerica semireducta!

Yesterday we hosted 2nd stakeholder workshop for the Finnish case study of @trees4adapt.eu project. We visited Satakunta forest diversity experiment & discussed how to facilitate forest diversification in Finland. Great group representing forest owners, forest industry etc. Thanks to the attendees!

🌙🦋 Nearly 1 in 9 moth species in Europe is threatened with extinction. A new European Red List highlights the importance of protecting and reconnecting habitats, while improving biodiversity monitoring. Learn how these themes connect to SafeNet's work: 🔗 safenet-project.eu #Biodiversity #Habitats

🐾🌲What are climate refugia? Places where local conditions remain suitable for species despite climate change. They could become vital for protecting forest biodiversity in the future. Learn how SafeNet is exploring climate refugia and forest connectivity: 🔗 safenet-project.eu/climate-refu...

Great annual meeting of @trees4adapt.eu project in Protugal this week. The highlight was visiting the Serra da Estrela Natural Park to learn more about Portuguese case study on post-fire recovery strategies in Mediterranean landscapes. Many thanks to the organizers, particularly the Portuguese team

How can landscapes recover from wildfire while becoming more resilient to future climate and biodiversity risks? Trees4Adapt is studying this question in Portugal through its Serra da Estrela case study, which will host the consortium next week! 🌳 Learn more: trees4adapt.eu/case-studies...

Meet the Trees4Adapt Case Studies (2/3) How can trees help make farms more resilient to climate change? Trees4Adapt is studying how agroforestry systems can support biodiversity, carbon storage and more resilient farming landscapes in Germany. 🌳 Learn more: trees4adapt.eu/trees4adapt-...

Meet the Trees4Adapt Case Studies (1/3) How can more diverse forests help tackle climate change and biodiversity loss? Trees4Adapt is studying this question in Finland through the long-running Satakunta forest diversity experiments. 🌲Learn more: trees4adapt.eu/case-studies... #ClimateAdaptation

We met up in the darkest month in Helsinki but luckily exciting project plans and lovely community spirit brightened things up tat our @trees4adapt.bsky.social kick-off meeting. A particular highlight was the first meeting with stakeholders from our Finnish Case Study. www.luke.fi/en/news/tree...

An eventful day in winter wonderland! It was a pleasure to show Satakunta forest diversity experiments to colleagues from @trees4adapt.bsky.social project

Good discussions today at the stakeholder kick-off meeting in Pori about our case study on diversifying Finnish forests in @trees4adapt.bsky.social project. Heading back to the UK now. Many thanks to @mdpashkevich.bsky.social, @albrichk.bsky.social and @luke.fi team for organizing the meeting! 🌲🌳❄️

Successful day 2 of the Trees4Adapt kick-off meeting in Helsinki! 🌿 We worked on our case studies in Germany, Portugal, and Finland, looking at how more biodiversity, and the right stakeholders, can make real impact. And yes, we wrapped up with a sauna! #TreeBasedSolution #TreeBiodiversity

Really enjoying the kick off meeting of @trees4adapt.bsky.social project in Helsinki - fantastically organised by @luke.fi team, great group of people and inspiring discussions. Looking forward to 'team building sauna' tonight!

The Trees4Adapt team is in Helsinki for our kick-off meeting! Two days of planning, good discussions, a cold ferry to Suomenlinna, and a sauna ahead. A strong start to a Horizon Europe project on tree-based solutions 🌱 #Trees4adapt #TreeBasedSolution #MissionClimateAdapt #EUproject #KickingOff
