The PhUnFETTy lab will have four presentations at #ESA2025. These will cover plant ecophysiology, trait ecology, eutrophication, water availability, mycorrhizae, demography, theory, modeling, and more!
Check out the flyer and replies below for more details. Hope to see you in Baltimore!

Hey Lubbock folks: need something fun to do tonight? Consider stopping by Nashwell Cafe (downtown) for Science by the Glass.
Tonight's speaker is bioarchaeologist Dr. Anna Novotny!
The event starts at 6 PM tonight. Hope to see you there!

And this plays out in the dataset! That is, we see that the responsiveness of leaf nitrogen to soil nitrogen increases with aridity and decreases with temperature of the sites

Sampled soils from our #NutNet plots for a project on arid land soil #carbon responses to #eutrophication. Dan had a much easier time than me!
Isa (our photographer, not pictured) will be helping to look at root trait-soil C interactions.
A lovely day for #fieldwork and we got quite the haul!

We had a great turnout at our Science by the Glass event last night! These events are put on by the TTU Climate Center and provide a venue for scientists to engage the with the community about their research
Thanks to Abi Bhattachan for a fascinating talk on Valley Fever, West Texas, and Climate
