Manager (Bioimaging lab) - Kew Gardens. Microscopy+Plant anatomy+trait based ecology = predicting tree community structure & sensitivity to drought.
Honoured to have participated in the discussions that resulted in this important @rbgkew.bsky.social study at @plantspeopleplanet.bsky.social
examining how herbaria are transitioning from physical specimen collection management to digitised curation.

Yes, many tropical trees have annual rings! Great to contribute to this global synthesis led by @pieterzuidema.bsky.social, indicating stronger droughts w climate change may shift observed more resilient responses toward more widespread decreases in productivity www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🧪🌾🌐
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...
