So proud to see #MichaletzLab alum @lachlanbyrnes.bsky.social win an @agu.org #OSPA award for his #AGU2024 talk on his PhD research at #Yale with @pmbrando.bsky.social! Huge congrats Lachlan - so well deserved! @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social @ubcbotany.bsky.social @science.ubc.ca

Huge congrats to @milossimovic.bsky.social for receiving a Best Presentation Award at #ISEPEP10 for his talk on mechanisms linking fine root traits to climate change-induced yellow-cedar decline! #MichaletzLab @science.ubc.ca @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social @zoology.ubc.ca @isepep10.bsky.social

Hey #ESA2025, tomorrow #MichaletzLab PhD candidate #MarcellaCross will present new eddy covariance results from the 2021 North American heat dome! Stop in and say hello!

COS 131-01 Decoupling of photosynthesis and evapotranspiration in heatwaves
Thursday, 14 Aug
8:00 – 8:15 AM EDT

@milossimovic.bsky.social just released #balancR (michaletzlab.github.io/balancR) -a new tool for resolving data imbalance in scaling analyses! Based on methods developed in shorturl.at/bfLPs and applied in shorturl.at/CPF9s. #MichaletzLab @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social @zoology.ubc.ca @science.ubc.ca

New in #NewPhytologist: Temperature governs the relative contributions of cuticle and stomata to leaf minimum conductance (shorturl.at/f9h7O) - Exciting work with #MichaletzLab PhD graduate #JosefGaren @ubcbotany.bsky.social @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social @science.ubc.ca @newphyt.bsky.social

Hey #ESAus2024! Don’t miss poster 014 today, where @nicolebison.bsky.social will present "The kinetic basis of photosynthetic heat tolerance." Come check it out to learn more! #ESA2024 #MichaletzLab @ubcbotany.bsky.social @ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social @ubcscience.bsky.social

Tree plumbing is hard. Xylem “pipes” must move water & not collapse. New study in #PlantCell&Environment (shorturl.at/CPF9s) led by #MichaletzLab PhD candidate @milossimovic.bsky.social shows how #mechanics (not just #hydraulics) shape xylem traits from leaves to roots, across 5 spp & 600k conduits.

What drives photosynthesis temperature sensitivity? New #GCB paper from #MichaletzLab grad #JosefGaren uses #FAsTeR to show it's 1‑day weather, not traits, origin climate, or phylogeny!
