Press release for an important new SWELTR paper about soil warming effects in lowland tropical forest: nature.com/articles/s4156… Warming decreased microbial diversity, and the rate of increase in respiratory CO2 loss exceeded predictions Smithsonian Panama STRIAcademicPrograms #Panama

Estamos felices y muy agradecidos con La Prensa Panamá por cubrir nuestro estudio sobre los impactos del cambio climático en los suelos tropicales. Suelos tropicales son altamente sensibles al calentamiento global prensa.com/vivir/suelos-t…

Sensitivity to change: STRI intern Maria Montero-Sanchez investigates the acclimation of soil microbes and respiration rates to cooling and re-warming, after SWELTR was temporarily switched off during the COVID-19 pandemic

Soil microbiota takes the heat Two studies report how soil microbiota adapts after wildfires and soil warming. nature.com/articles/s4157…

Congratulations STRI short-term fellow Esther Velasquez - exciting new research at SWELTR. Thanks to STRIAcademicPrograms for organising the symposium and to Caroline Bacquet for the inspiring keynote (↑ diversity and ↓ monoculture of scientific minds & perspectives!)

Just out! New directions for studying global change impacts on biogeochemical cycling in tropical forests: nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np… Excited to be part of this conversation: cross-site collaboration, diversity + inclusivity (Ecological Society) Big thanks2 @DanielaCusack Sasha Reed

La técnica de SWELTR Alicia Sanjur recibe a miembros de la ACP para que conozcan un poco de las investigaciones sobre efectos del cambio climático en los bosques tropicales, Canal de Panamá agradecemos su visita!
