Sweden| New research from Lund University shows that underground fungi are essential for the recovery of fragile tropical island ecosystems, particularly on remote atolls where rainforest trees and marine life are closely connected Sweden Scientists found that special fungi living in the soil help trees absorb nutrients and grow, which then support seabirds that fertilize surrounding ocean waters This process ultimately helps maintain healthy coral reefs The study also discovered rare fungal species and emphasized that restoring forests requires not only planting trees but also preserving the natural fungi that support them highlighting the deep connection between land and sea ecosystems
