Aboveground biomass in Australian tropical forests now a net carbon source - Nature
A transition from carbon sink to source for the aboveground woody biomass of moist tropical Australian forests has occurred, driven by increasingly extreme climate anomalies.

🌳 New paper out in Ecology Letters! 🌱
Our latest study, led by Lukas Magee, shows that the “legacies” of trees continue to shape forests long after they die.

➡️ Fast-growing / small-seeded species dominating Brazilian forests were levels of deforestation and degradation are high.

What a pleasure to be at #BES2024! Great presentations and people, but also lots of fun! I enjoyed presenting a poster on tropical #tree #demography and #ClimateChange, and discussing with colleagues, as well as people I met for the first time. My bowling 🎳, however, still needs a lot of work... 🙈
Day two was packed with fantastic talks, poster presentations and fun activities! We can’t believe that we are already at the final day of #BES2024!

Lovely and nostalgic time visiting friends and colleagues at the @oxfordecosystems.bsky.social lab. Had the pleasure to present new results on tropical #tree growth and its cause-effect relations to climate anomalies across tropical climates. Always such a friendly and stimulating environment! 🌳🌡️☀️
