Update. The Association of American Universities (#AAU) defense of US higher ed is a bit better. It doesn't focus narrowly on the economy.

But it ends on a jarring note of #nationalism.

"America cannot afford to pause for one second in our race with #China and other competitor nations – nations who are doubling down on their investments in university-based research into crucial emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum computing."

I want US research to be #OpenAccess, and fully available to China and every other country. BTW, I want the same for Chinese research and research from every other country. Taking the nationalist argument seriously makes it an argument against OA, which also makes it an argument against current federal policy (#NelsonMemo) and against the interests of all US universities. Let's remember that science is international. Let's defend open access, not nation-limited access. And let's defend US universities because they're universities, not because they're in the US.

A fine new #OpenAccess paper by my colleagues at NCF #ncfindia jointly with #agroforestry owners/managers, highlighting the potential of shade #coffee agroforests as native plant and seed sources to support #EcologicalRestoration and diversifying native saplings for agroforests themselves. This also holds the potential for more ethical seed and seedling sourcing and reducing the native seed collection impacts/dependence on #forest remnants.
