Today I gave a talk about climate change and human footprint to my old primary school Vedruna Tordera (10 yo students). It is also our responsibility to communicate science to make it reachable to all levels and backgrounds Terrer Lab

Climate Snacks on deck! Join us on April 13th for a conversation with the amazing Sara Vicca | The land as a natural brake on climate change. 🌍🌿 Use the link below to register! eventcreate.com/e/saravicca #climatechange #spreadscience #ClimateScience #climatesnacks

Our new study has just been published in nature! We find a marked increase in tree mortality in the tropical moist forests of #Australia in the past decades, consistent across many species and sites. The results point at #ClimateChange as the most likely driver.

Today I participated in the amazing Climate Action Through Education (CATE) workshop. An exciting synery of high school teachers and MIT scientist to implement climate change curricula to Massachusetts high schools. The pilot starts this fall! ceepr.mit.edu/cate/

Our paper is out! Cowan, D., Lebre, P., Amon, C. et al. Biogeographical survey of soil microbiomes across sub-Saharan Africa: structure, drivers, and predicted climate-driven changes. Microbiome 10, 131 (2022). doi.org/10.1186/s40168…

Amazing new paper by our Evan Fricke. Congrats!

Summer is coming to an end, which means Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is getting busy with new students! At Terrer Lab we want to wish you the best start of the school year, let's make it count!🌿📚

📢New subject this Fall | 1.076 Carbon Management📢 Introduces the carbon cycle and climate solutions. Sign in for specialized knowledge to manage and offset carbon emissions for government entities and large corporations through nature-based solutions and tech Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) MIT CEE

📢Registrations are OPEN for Sept 15th Climate Snack! Susan Cook-Patton will shed some light on the role of #forests as #NatureBasedSolutions to sequester #carbon 🌳🌍 Cook-Patton | Restoring tree cover as a natural climate solution!eventcreate.com/e/susan-cook-p…

Natural forest regrowth may capture 1.08 Pg C /yr aboveground and 1.60 Pg C/yr belowground in a 30 years span. Those levels contrast with IPCC report, which estimated the potential C sequestration to be 32% lower. #inspiredTerrerLab nature.com/articles/s4158…

Family picnic Terrer Lab enjoying some pizza and this beautiful location. We missed you Evan Fricke @1smbell Zhao Zhang and close collaborators.

Last Friday we were honoured to have Rich Phillips visiting MIT CEE . Thank you, Rich, for the seminar and the insightfull meetings. We were delighted to know more abut the amazing world of Mycorrhizae linked to C sequestration.

📢 Join us this Friday to talk about Carbon Capture with Charlie Harvey (MIT), who recently published an op-ed in the New York Times: "Every Dollar Spent on This Climate Technology Is a Waste" Zoom registration: eventcreate.com/users/109753/e… Op-ed: nytimes.com/2022/08/16/opi……

The Terrer Lab successfully completed the most challenging #ScapeRoom adventure in Boston! We can accomplish everything when we work as a team 🧠

I finally made it to my first #AGU22 . If you are interested in global N uptake by plants come see my talk on Tuesday at 15:09 (GC25D-03, room S501-bcd). Super open to discuss and later drinks!

Compound droughts slow down the greening of the Earth onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc…

Tropical forests recovering from disturbances offset 1/4 of carbon emissions from tropical deforestation and degradation. In a new paper in @nature we quantify the C sink of these forests in the Amazon, Borneo and Central Africa: nature.com/articles/s4158… How did we do this? 1/

As a postdoc in the Terrer Lab, Leila Mirzagholi uses her background in physics to understand global warming’s impact on the terrestrial carbon cycle. news.mit.edu/2023/how-biome…
