Have a look at what my brother found in the forest this morning! Mosses, ferns... Is this not the most beautiful trash ever? 🍾

Invitée par la fondation Evertéa, j'ai adoré participer à Pint of Science 🍺 au bar Cause Toujours (Valence) : "Les super-pouvoirs de la forêt, passés aux rayons laser !" #pint25
@pintofscience.fr
Binôme avec Aurore Toulou, doctorante au CETHIL de Lyon, sur les microclimats & espaces verts urbains 🌳

The beauty of trees as lidar point clouds... 3D pixel art 🌳 🧊
Here, an oak forest stand from the North of France, with a dense understory. Voxelised with AMAPVox @umramap.bsky.social, from our terrestrial lidar scans!

Did you ever see Glass Gem corn? Yes, these are natural colors from real corn! 🌈🌽 This variety was selected in the 80s by a farmer in Oklahoma, who crossed ancestral breeds. My aunt has grown this variety, and though you can ear it as popcorn 🍿, I instead made earrings out of the jewel-like seeds!

As my first Bluesky post, I am happy to share my moss photo (the beautiful exotic Campylopus introflexus) on the cover of the newest @journalofecology.bsky.social issue! 🌱 Here is our paper, on bryophyte and vascular plant affinity to forest microclimate: doi.org/10.1111/1365...
