Just a slow-mo of a boiling tree sample; a mesmerizing step in wood anatomy prep 🤩 #tropicalwood #QWA #dendro #ilovescience

What's your go-to (climate related) science podcasts? Bonus points for paleo, dendro, or climate justice episodes. Feel free to shamelessly plug your own if you have one!

Water availability limits maximum tropical tree height. Trees modulate their drought resilience by tapering their xylem vessels (decreasing their size) from base to tip. We explored vessel-tapering patterns in 𝐶𝑒𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑙𝑎 sp. along a climatic gradient: doi.org/10.1007/s00468…

I had a great opportunity to speak about the power of Dendro! Thanks for the opportunity Columbia Climate School . Everyone should study tropical trees 😎.

A line up of presentations by Columbia Climate School LDEO Tree Ring Lab scientists at #AGU22: 🧵

This species drives me crazy! SUPER difficult to identify ring boundaries in the tree cores- even with histological cuts like this 🥲 It is gorg though.

Scientists at @nasa teamed up with the USDA Forest Service to create the first-ever inventory of mature, old-growth forests in the U.S. This visualization shows vegetation height across the U.S. (shown in green, with lighter color indicating taller trees). go.nasa.gov/3oLcvVg

This is the crossover I've always wanted 😌 So neat!

Our very own Dr. Ed Cook giving the Lamont-Doherty Colloquium this afternoon! The LDEO Tree Ring Lab legend, co-founder, and all around amazing scientist. Congrats Ed!

I’m really fortunate to have an all-women super group of scientists on my PhD committee. The mentorship and advocacy from the many #WomenInScience I’ve met has been life-changing and I hope to create the same environment for others! 👩‍🔬👩‍🔬

Really awesome talk by Charlotte Pearson who highlights all the amazing reasons why I love this field!

Does your research focus on South American biogeography, the carbon cycle, or climate variability and impacts on ecosystems and human populations ? Consider submitting an abstract to our multidisciplinary AGU session! #agu2024 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/prel…

Officially moving to Bluesky. Hope to find you wonderful people on the other side!
