Water use efficiency (iWUE) is related with water availability. Our recent @natcomms.nature.com paper shows that this relationship has been strengthened over the past decades. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I made 11,160 model runs with our BiomeE in this paper. It was done for many times, with different model settings to test model assumptions and parameterization. Eventually, we only chose one set of the runs in the results. Toy models are useful!

My latest for American Scientist Magazine helps give scientists the tools to fight back against politicized charges that our research is silly or pointless- tools that will work whether you’re asked “why are we funding this” from your asshole uncle at Thanksgiving or an asshole US Senator.

“Why Are We Funding This?”
Long-standing myths about “silly science” have contributed to the reckless slashing of government-supported research.

Agree that if you submit one paper as a first or senior author, you should do two reviews.

There are 6 Forest Service research stations that also manage research labs, 80 experimental forests, a forest product laboratory, & the International Institute of Tropical Forestry. This is the most extensive natural resource research operation in the world--a hidden crown jewel of our country. 2/

Excellent piece by @kristinayoung.bsky.social on the critical threat facing the USGS's Southwest Biological Science Center. We must rally and fight this senseless attack on science!!

It's important that science continues, now more than ever. Hence I am happy to share our recent paper which shows the slowing of post-mortality forest recovery @natplants.nature.com. With great colleagues including @smmunson.bsky.social @wmhammond.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our new research shows that forest recovery from tree mortality has slowed in recent decades. This reduction is primarily associated with rising temperatures and increased water scarcity. Recovery of forest canopy water content lags behind that of vegetation greenness

Satellite data show declining global forest recovery from tree mortality since the 1990s, driven by warming and water scarcity. Canopy water recovers slower than greenness, stressing the need for a mu...

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

In a newly published Agricultural and Forest Meteorology paper, we developed a method that successfully migrates eddy covariance based carbon flux measurements to thousands of meteorological stations. Led by postdoc Dr. Wenqiang Zhang. Check out the paper here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Thanks, Katherine. Never a fan of large labs at the size of 40-60 people if they are primarily grads and postdocs. Running a research lab is different than running a business, I guess.

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them.

Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is.

Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙
