We quantify, map, and analyze wood density across tropical South America. The analysis led by Martin Sullivan refines the east-west Amazon gradient in wood density, revealing much finer variation and extends to Andean, dry, and Atlantic forests @forestplots.bsky.social

‘We need the support of nonscientists: everyone who benefits from the accomplishments of U.S. research, and everyone who knows a kid like I was all those years ago, just finding a spark of scientific inspiration.’

⬇️ this is beautiful. Thank you @jbyoder.org and @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social
And, my @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social-inspired op-ed is online at LNP/Lancaster Online — in print, it's alongside a piece from two geoscientists with local roots on the front page of the Sunday Perspectives section
