In a study from earlier this year, researchers found that areas around beaver habitat were significantly less impacted by wildfires. Now, the same pattern has been found in Canada #wildfires #Canada #beaverhabitat #naturebasedsolutions https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/12/24/news/beavers-wildfire-prevention

It’s official! We are thrilled to announce the funding of 34 groundbreaking research projects with over €40 million to advance #NatureBasedSolutions (NbS).
Mark your calendars: #BiodivNBS kick-off meeting on 9 April 2025, online or in Montpellier (FR).
