Can biocrust #moss hide from #climatechange? Fine-scale habitat sheltering improves summer stress resistance in Syntrichia caninervis

New #AJB research by Theresa Clark, Alexander Russell, Joshua Greenwood, Dale Devitt, Daniel Stanton & Lloyd Stark

doi.org/10.1002/ajb2... #botany #plantscience
A four-part graphic: (A) Elevations (m a.s.l.) surveyed for Syntrichia caninervis in the Sheep Range of the Mojave Desert National Wildlife Refuge (DNWR). EPSCoR-NevCAN climate towers are shown at each elevation zone site. Final sample of 92 microsites (20 × 20 cm quadrats enumerated in (C) spanned three aridity exposure gradients: (B) elevation zones, (C) topography zones (northerly, southerly, or flat transects), and (D) microhabitat shade types. For each topography zone in (C), the slope and microhabitat frequency are shown, and missing squares indicate S. caninervis was not found for a given zone or microhabitat type.

New blog post!

Sometimes, when reviewing a manuscript, it's really unclear to me what precisely the authors are trying to do -- which makes it hard to evaluate the work properly.

So, here's some advice for how to ensure that readers don't get lost.

Hi does anyone have a good suggestion for a documentary film about terra preta and biochar addition to soil. It's for an intro soils class. Had been using an old BBC doc, but it is quite dated now.

NEW WARNING about ARCTIC WARMING: My new #sciart accompanies research by Ted Schuur, @ecoss-nau.bsky.social et al that carries urgent warnings for the effects that global warming is having on the Arctic: news.nau.edu/arctic-warmi...
illustration comparing the effects of 2 global warming scenarios: an increase of 1.5 vs. 2.7 celsius. The higher warming scenario will cause loss of all sea ice during Arctic summer, shrinking of Greenland's ice sheet, and thaw of roughly half of existing permafrost by the year 2100

Thanks for your response, Marten. Seems like it would be easy for GS to make a way to scrape papers and citations for multiple authors. Shame that they don't. Anyway, one day I'd like to do this for our research center and your example is a nice inspiration.

Hi Marten - very cool. May I ask how you built that, I tried to do a page for a group using the "add coauthors" button. But it did not work. Adding co-authors did not capture additionla papers or citations.
