We seek 2 post docs to join our group working on atmospheric methane removal (AMR) in trees. These exciting projects (👇🏼) seek to build on our recent @nature discovery of global AMR by trees. These projects combine flux msrmnts, global modelling & microbial ecology. Pls RT 🙏🏼

Finally moved over to @bluesky and impressed by how much of our community is there, but still missing (or have not yet found) some of my former twitter constants. Would be nice to see you there! tompugh.bsky.social

Deadline 5th Nov! #postdoc

Hei friends and colleagues, we have a 3 yr postdoc position within our forest ecology research group @UniNMBU in beautiful Norway ❄️🌲 It combines remote sensing with ground monitoring to understand boreal forest growth and stress tolerance. jobbnorge.no/en/available-j… Pls share!

Tree functional strategies regulate responses to water stress. Liu et al. show coherent spatial variation in forest community-level trait associations across temperate forests that is linked to temperature. @daijunliu @TomPughLab nature.com/articles/s4146…

We still have a great #Postdoc position open @MPI_BGC in our Ecosystem Function from Earth Observation to work on the @CoForFunc project. We seek to link tree functional diversity and remote sensing over the Congo Basin Forests. 🛰️🌲🌳🌴🌍 Deadline Oct 22 bgc-jena.mpg.de/en/career/19-2…

If you ever want to try to introduce lianas in a vegetation model, check some guidelines in our new paper, based on 10 years experience of liana-modelling work! 👇 @Q_ForestLab Towards a liana plant functional type for vegetation models sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Nice to see our work is published on @NatureComms. It is a team effort. Many thanks to my amazing co-authors for their hard work and collaboration. @TomPughLab @nanimuelbert @NAcil_research @J_astigarraga @txm676 @_pRb_ @Wild_inBrum @GMChao @TreeMort_ERC @univienna

How do strategies for dealing with water stress vary across forest communities? We mapped these across European and US forests combining forest inventory and functional trait data. Led by @daijunliu and now out in @NatureComms @ERC_Research @BIFoRUoB @becc_sweden

We have TWO #postdoc opportunities on African forests and their changing ecology. With AfriTRON, ForestPlots and a dynamic group of tropical forest scientists @UniversityLeeds @SoGLeeds Details: jobs.leeds.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?r… jobs.leeds.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?r… Questions: S.L.Lewis@leeds.ac.uk

#Postdoc position @lunduniversity Interested in how forests across the world are changing? Join us working with scientists from tropics to boreal to tie together obs of tree growth and mortality from field plots using forest modelling @ForestPlots @ERC_Research Deadline 5th Nov

Interested in how the deadtrees.earth database can contribute towards mapping tree mortality globally? Come join us for the next ITMN seminar by Teja Kattenborn & Clemens Mosig on October 8th 16:00 CEST! Please register for the online seminar: t1p.de/cpwyg

The power of #collaboration! By joining forces with a great team of peers from across the 🌍, we identified 4 main life strategies of trees – crucially expanding our knowledge of #treedemographics. Read now in @ScienceMagazine: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… @ForestPlots @TreeMort_ERC

The global forest carbon sink is enduring remarkably. Our three-decadal analysis is led by Yude Pan, with Rich Birdsey, @SimonLLewis, & colleagues world-wide. It confirms that tropical deforestation remains the big threat to the sink. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Very happy to see the paper “Relative decline in density of Northern Hemisphere tree species in warm and arid regions of their climate niches” published in @PNASNews after several years working on it pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵👇

Presenting the first chapter of my PhD at #IUFRO2024 congress. It was great to see the advances in forest science and the collaboration efforts being deployed at regional and global levels! @TreeMort_ERC @TomPughLab @Wild_inBrum @sussesu @corneliussenf @NCEOscience
