Cool paper by @marcochiminazzo.bsky.social, on the effect of novel wildfire regimes on vegetation functional filtering.🔥🌳This may have huge implication for ecosystem functioning, especially if not used to fires!
Also relevant for post-disturbance management!

Heading back to Brazil after six amazing months at the University of Connecticut working with Pam Diggle and Cindi Jones.

Leaving behind 700 seedlings to continue growing in the greenhouse.

I can’t wait to return and conduct fire-induced experiments on plant development!

Posting this old cartoon just because I never thought I would draw buds with… haircuts. This cartoon refers to the potential of some buds to survive fire when protected by trichomes (hairs), allowing them to develop into resprouts after fire events besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
