#TreeMortality
🌲🪳 Tree mortality caused by insects is on the rise in Europe. Warm, dry regions are the most severely affected. New study in @globalchangebio.bsky.social www.wsl.ch/en/news/tree... #Forests #ClimateChange #Treemortality #Barkbeetles
Tree mortality from insects is rising across Europe
In Europe, more trees are dying from insect infestations. Broadleaves cope better than conifers, as heat and drought worsen the issue.

Researchers developed new model calculations that estimate the global influences of lightning on #forestecosystems, showing that 320 million trees die each year due to #lightningstrikes: go.tum.de/970492 🌳

320 million trees are killed by lightning each year
Researchers at TUM were able to show that each year, 320 million trees worldwide die directly as a result of lightning strikes.

📢 Insect-driven tree mortality is rising in Europe. Heat & drought favours bark/wood borers–especially in conifers–while moth defoliation declines across host types. Warm, dry regions are hit hardest by all feeding guilds. #GCB link: doi.org/10.1111/gcb.... #Forests #ClimateChange #TreeMortality

🌍 Can we map #TreeMortality with #AI & #remotesensing?
🔵 Check the #DeadTrees.Earth — a global initiative led by Clemens Mosig to track and analyze tree mortality from aerial and satellite data.
🔬Looking forward to Teja Kattenborn's talk at the ML Symposium in Zurich!

"In Europe, #France, Germany, the Czech Republic and Sweden have all experienced

significant declines in the amount of carbon absorbed by land,

driven by climate-related #barkbeetle outbreaks, #drought and increased #treemortality"🌳

Trees and land absorbed almost no CO2 last year. Is nature’s carbon sink failing?
The sudden collapse of carbon sinks was not factored into climate models – and could rapidly accelerate global heating
