Next talk: “Survival heterosis of a montane wildflower varies with genetics and environment” by Cathy Rushworth. Understanding how genetic diversity boosts survival in varying environments. #Heterosis #WildflowerGenetics

Fantastic talk by Niek Scheepens @plantevoeco.bsky.social on resurrection ecology!!
Resurrection studies were also beautifully showcased by @seemasheth.bsky.social #CologneSpringMeeting

We used a morphological approach to identify #megadroughts globally over the past 40 years and applied plant-greenness indices to determine the impacts on vegetation. Megadroughts are increasing in frequency, area and intensity on the global scale.
Global increase in the occurrence and impact of multiyear droughts
Persistent multiyear drought (MYD) events pose a growing threat to nature and humans in a changing climate. We identified and inventoried global MYDs by detecting spatiotemporally contiguous climatic anomalies, showing that MYDs have become drier, hotter,...
