The fantastic first image released by @esa.int Biomass satellite.

In glorious false colour to represent its P-band radar imaging, capable of penetrating even the highest biomass forests in the Amazon and Congo.

Please pass along - postdoc position! with our working group on #FunctionalTraits and rarity. This is part of the FREE (Functional Rarity in Ecology and Evolution) working group led by Cyrille Violle in Montpellier France 🧪🌐🌾 emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

Excellent new paper investigating changes in plant composition through time in the Arctic! Very impressive dataset!
Thanks @nanitundra.bsky.social for leading this and getting me involved on a familiar question in an unfamiliar environment.

📢 Job Alert! 🌳
Looking for a 2-yr postdoc (ext. up to 3 yrs) to join me at U. of Gothenburg to study links between environmental drivers, tree conditions (e.g., #treedamage), and physiological processes leading to #tropical #treemortality.

Apply by: April 17th

Excited to be part of the team taking on this large forest monitoring site! Continuous monitoring since 1940's gives a fantastic long term perspective! Nice to be looking at forests close to home for a change.

Coring a big beech tree

🌳🌳🌳 We have a new paper in @pnas.org showing climate warming leads to growth decline in beech because it drives trees to reproduce more frequently. Climate change can cause growth decline even when drought isn’t increasing by shifting where trees allocate resources doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2423181122

Come and join our growing group of forest ecologists in Liverpool. Fantastic project, wonderful supervisors, exciting city!

Last week to apply! PhD studentship in Tropical mountain forest ecology🌄 Funds secured! Join us at University of Liverpool to understand how climate change will challenge Andean tree reproduction. tinyurl.com/mr35spbj

Ancient Araucaria tree in Patagonia

🚨 New paper! 🌲🌲🌲 Monkey puzzle trees reproduce in mast years that occur synchronously across their range. But large-scale sync isn’t the norm - just when its warm. We reconstructed using #TreeRings, using the signal from varying reproductive costs in male and female trees doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.70087

Can I be added please

Fagus sylavtica flowering

🚨 Funded PhD opportunity: forests & climate change
Drought reduces growth, triggers dieback & can kill trees, but how does it affect tree reproduction? Help us answer this question! Join a great team in Liverpool & Kew, inc. @belenfadrique.bsky.social 🌳🌱🌲 Deadline = Jan

New exciting PhD project in our growing forest ecology group in Liverpool. I'm not a supervisor for clarity, but a really great supervision team

Exciting updates! In January 2025 I will start at University of Liverpool as a Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Fellow. I will build a team to work on montane forests across the tropics! Several positions (tropical and temperate) coming up soon! Join our growing forest ecology group at Liverpool!

Me please
