Solo la semana pasada atendimos más de 3.600 consultas y 1.655 casos de desnutrición en Ciudad de Gaza. Ahora nos vemos forzados a suspender nuestras actividades por seguridad. Pedimos el alto al fuego.

#Sequoia and Sequoiadendron: Two paleoendemic megatrees with markedly different adaptive responses to recent high-severity fires

By Jon Keeley & @jgpausas.bsky.social

Although most trees in western USA conifer forests are killed by high intensity crown fires, most California coast redwoods survive by resprouting (photo by Jon Keeley, 2 years after the CZU Fire in Big Basin State Park).

Sequoia sempervirens (redwood; world's tallest tree) is well adapted to high-intensity crown fires (eg 2020), but Sequoiadendron giganteum (giant sequoia; world's most massive tree) is adapted to surface fires only!

Those savannas next to the river that experienced flooding a few months ago are now ready to burn (flood-sensitive grasses); savannas further from the river are green (non-flammable).
Flooding enhances fire, i.e., water and fire are complementary forces in Los Llanos del Orinoco, Colombia.

Savanna with all the grasses dead, although we are not in the dry season. This savanna is close to the river and was flooded a few months ago

No, as far as I know! Nobody has recorded that action.

No flammable plants living in a flammable fuel bed:
Even young Chaparros (Curatella americana) & Alcornocos (Bowdichia virgilioides) survive postfire thanks to their low-flammability strategy (sensus dx.doi.org/10.1111/1365...), Llanos del Orinoco.

The crested caracara (Caracara plancus, Falconidae) is among the first avian species to benefit from prescribed burns here in Los Llanos del Orinoco. Up to 26 individuals were observed today while we were still burning

Creo que el gran público no se da cuenta de a qué extremo de la ultraderecha se ha ido Musk, cómo su periplo ideológico pospandemia ha acabado en posturas inequívocamente neonazis ni de lo peligroso que es que el hombre más rico del mundo se haya convertido en esto.
