I had a lot of fun executing this field campaign and I am very pleased to have the final paper from my PhD published. Thank you to my wonderful collaborators for your support along the way @ymalhi.bsky.social @shenkin.bsky.social @matdisney.bsky.social @kungphil.bsky.social
Investigating the accuracy of tropical woody stem CO2 efflux estimates: scaling methods, and vertical and diel variation
Stem CO2 efflux (EA) significantly contributes to autotrophic and ecosystem respiration in tropical forests, but field methodologies often introduce biases and uncertainty. This study evaluates thes...

We used a team of highly skilled tree climbers, a continuous automated flux system and TLS data to understand these biases in Maliau Basin Conservation Area, in Malaysian Borneo

This research aimed to understand the bias involved in tropical field campaigns and how we traditionally estimate stem CO2 efflux - specifically measuring at one time-stamp, one height on the tree stem and using allometric equations to upscale to stand-level

I’ve kept a couple that are most precious to me. But I feel like I’m splitting up a family! A house plant family 😭
