The Dryland Ecology and Management Lab is recruiting an MS or PhD student interested in plant functional traits & restoration to join our team in Spring or Summer 2025. Applications are due September 30. Please retweet and visit drylandecology.com for more information!🌱static1.squarespace.com/static/605b7af…

My new #Sciart accompanies USGS research that discusses less-destructive ways to install utility-scale solar power infrastructure, sparing desert vegetation and even creating new habitat for native wildlife: doi.org/10.1016/j.rser… Claire Karban Seth Munson

In my lab we really like messing with humidity and VPD in experimental manipulations. This is important because global VPD is increasing (see Yuan et al. 2019) but it's also important because PLANTS AFFECT VPD through transpiration and shading and boundary layer effects.

Koppa & al show in Science Magazine science.org/doi/full/10.11… how drylands contribute less moisture & more heat to downwind humid regions as they dry, reducing precipitation & increasing atmospheric water demand. This causes their aridification & explain their ongoing expansion

The #SonoranDesert is changing. A report by @SWFireConsortium funded by AZ Wildfire Initiative (efforts based at NAU ) highlights how invasive grasses are fueling unprecedented fires, and aims at improving wildfire prevention, management & recovery. Read more: swfireconsortium.org/wp-content/upl…
