Pantropical tree rings show small effects of drought on stem growth Increasing drought pressure under anthropogenic climate change may jeopardize the potential of tropical forests to capture carbon in woody biomass and act as a long-term carbon dioxide sink. To evalua...

How do tropical #trees deal with droughts? The answer is published today in @science.org

Our pantropical #treering analysis revealed 2.5% growth reduction during #drought years. Yet, growth declined by >10% in 1/4 of 500 study sites, and in hotter & drier regions.

Still have some space?

Great congratulations, Florian😍

🌿✨I am pleased to share the preprint of the final chapter of my PhD dissertation: 😊

"From Suppressed to Dominant: 3D Crown Shapes Explain the 'To Grow or Wait' Growth Behavior in Close-to-Nature Forests." 🌲 🌳

The preprint is available at: lnkd.in/dhddMKSt

🚀 Mangrove Publication Alert! 🌱🌊
Our latest study, "Soil nutrients and leaf area index interact with species and structural diversity to buffer mangrove productivity against salinity," has just been published in Soil Ecology Letters! 📖✨

🎉 Publication Alert! 🎉
I’m thrilled to share that my 3rd PhD chapter has been published in Ecological Indicators!

In this work, we explored how various species respond to their growing conditions, focusing on how these responses are reflected in crown shapes and tree ring patterns.🌳✨
