Great team effort based on the work of dozens of people through the years!

🌏🌲Do trees produce more #wood as a result of #globalwarming? Not necessarily, according to a new study led by the WSL and published in @science.org. Annual wood production depends more on growth rate than on duration of growth – with implications for carbon storage. www.wsl.ch/en/news/more...

🌲Con il #riscaldamentoglobale gli alberi producono più #legno? Non necessariamente, come dimostra un nuovo studio. La produzione annuale di legno dipende più dalla velocità di crescita che dalla durata della stessa, con conseguenze per lo stoccaggio del carbonio. www.wsl.ch/it/news/una-...

🌲 Plus de temps pour pousser signifie-t-il plus de #bois ? Pas nécessairement. Une étude du WSL montre que la production annuelle de bois dépend davantage de la vitesse de croissance que de sa durée, ce qui a des implications pour le stockage du carbone. www.wsl.ch/fr/news/une-...

Un placer que salga este trabajo hecho posible gracias al trabajo de decenas de personas tras los años.

Another reason why cities should develop bike infrastructures: it simply makes economical sense!

Tendencia para el trimestre julio-agosto-septiembre. 🌡️ Muy alta probabilidad de que sea más cálido de lo normal en todo el país (60 a 70 %) frente a que sea más frío (10 %) ➡️ Predominarán, por tanto, los episodios de calor intenso frente a períodos más suaves. 1/2

This is why cities need trees. Hard surfaces and parked cars can reach extreme temperatures, while shaded grass and tree-covered areas stay dramatically cooler. This is the urban heat island effect in one image: hard surfaces absorb and radiate heat, while vegetation and shade reduce it.

Don’t forget what REALLY “drives” a lot of regional growth and infrastructure politics. It’s pretty much this. Great drawing via Ian Lockwood.

When it comes to the energy transition I'm a glass half full person. I know: plenty of people would say that's terribly naive. They point to the scale of the challenge. They point to vested interests. They point to hard-to-abate sectors. And they're not wrong. But here's what they miss. 🧵

“Copenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike — an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.” #Copenhagen chose. They keep choosing even better every year.

📢El #CSIC convoca 441 becas #JAE_Intro_ICU destinadas a estudiantes de grado y máster interesados en iniciarse en la investigación científica 🗓️El primer plazo está abierto hasta el 10 de marzo ➡️Más información: http://tiny.cc/n9qy001 ➡️Convocatoria: https://sede.csic.gob.es/icu2026

Last Wednesday, the village of Grazalema (southern Spain, 900 m altitude) received 577 mm of rain in one day: the second highest ever recorded in Spain, only behind the deadly downpour in the Valencia region of 29 October 2024. malagaldia.es/2026/02/06/g...

Incredible: ~2500mm (78 inches) in 20 days - 1.5X the normal yearly rainfall in Grazalema, Spain and it’s only February. How? A 5000 mile Tropical Atmospheric River lifted by terrain in Southern Spain. H/T Nahel Belgherze #europe #flood #spain #weather

Climate change is reshaping forest growth 🌳🌡️💧 Water and temperature control growth timing. Warmer winters make some species start growing earlier. Hot, dry summers may shorten growing seasons. New paper out @globalchangebio.bsky.social led by a former PhD student @csic.es shorturl.at/5Gn8a

Maybe the land carbon sink is weaker than we thought. Big implications: "A lower-than-expected land carbon sink would also imply that the land biosphere may be closer to transitioning from a net carbon sink to a net source than current models predict" Randerson et al. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

🌳 New Tansley Insight! What really limits tree growth—carbon source or sink? 🤔 I argue it’s not either/or but a distal → proximal continuum: from photosynthesis to transport and cell division, drivers act together to shape C allocation & growth 🌱🌍 🔗 nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.70516

Our new article is out in @geoderma.bsky.social! Drylands, which cover 40% of Earth’s land, store ~30% of global soil organic carbon. But how do different carbon fractions support ecosystem services under rising aridity? 🏜️ 📖 doi.org/10.1016/j.ge...
