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.

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.

🌸Plant diversity dynamics over space and time in a warming Arctic 🌸
Our new study @nature.com analysed plant diversity change in >2000 tundra plots over 4 decades. We found that plants changed unevenly, mostly driven by warming and biotic interactions.

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.
1/5 What happens when woodland is left to rewild? At Lady Park Wood this transformation has been monitored since 1945! @ect-uk.bsky.social have funded the 9th resurvey (first resurvey since 2010). Exciting and daunting to be part of the team taking on stewardship of this amazing study!

🌳🌳🌳 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
