Disability in ecology and evolution In this TrendsTalk series 'Disability in ecology and evolution' in Trends in Ecology and Evolution, we will be hearing from people about their experiences being disabled in ecology and evolution. We are asking ecologists and evolutionary biologists with disabilities what the community could do to make our field more inclusive – these changes can be very practical things (e.g., large fonts), they could be institutional, or involve people’s attitudes and beliefs. We hope you enjoy the series.

Our research team just published a new paper: "Aspen impedes wildland fire spread in southwestern United States landscapes".

Aspen forests are thought to be more resistant to burning compared to conifer forests, but this has not been well studied.

Shocker: This tropical tree thrives after being struck by lightning The almendro withstands thunderbolts that blast away parasitic vines

👀 Ok, if true this is a shocking way to blast through the forest canopy, remove lianas, & dominate "The idea that lightning strikes give almendros a competitive advantage-The almendro tree is so tolerant of strikes, in fact, that it may well be summoning lightning" www.science.org/content/arti... 🌐🧪
