In a study published in March, we found that the speed of global warming has nearly doubled since 2013, using a continuous piecewise-linear function. “Continuous” as otherwise one describes the data by a sequence of trends and abrupt jumps.

How to trace water fluxes in drought-stressed forests? 1. Stress trees, 2. Irrigate trees with 45,000 l of deuterium labelled water, 3. Wait for the label! Curious to see the results and thanks to everyone for the huge effort! @chriswernerlab.bsky.social @hydrofreiburg.bsky.social

A journal we should avoid publishing in & citing. Only by doing things like this & spreading the word can we stop this crazy behaviour that damages science Journal: Natural Hazards @springernature.com Authors: U North Carolina & @northeasternu.bsky.social @nu-policyschool.bsky.social 🧪🌍🔥🌳🔥🍁

@ecosense-sfb-1537.bsky.social in the news. This year our forests are experiencing exceptional drought and heat. In our ECOSENSE forest, we are closely monitoring fluxes and stress parameters from leaf to ecosystem - starting minute 54 (in German). @chriswernerlab.bsky.social

Passt schon. Einfach weitermachen, “früher war es auch schon heiß”… Zynismus off.

Yesterday afternoon 14:09 in Lacanau Océan in France. A pale red sun through the smoke tinged everything in Mars style orange. Welcome in the climate emergency! Despite all denial of the fossil fuel lobby, it’s scientific fact: CO2 emissions heat up Earth & make fires worse. 🔥🔥🔥

With the #heat wave finally renewed media interest on #stress impact on our #forest. Allready seeing first impacts with our 1200 #sensors at #ECOSENSE in both #beech and #Douglas fir.

Building new #rain-out shelters in our #ecodrought #water #isotope project tracing #rootwater uptake. Will be an intersting year with the ongoing #heat wave. As politics keeps ignoring #climatechange, science must speak up. With our PhD Franzi Geuchen, @simonhaber.bsky.social and Markus Weiler.

Enjoy the coming relatively cool week in Western Europe while it lasts! Forecast for 8 July 🥵.

🥵 Europe has been affected by a terrible heatwave, with impacts across the continent & record-breaking temperatures in many countries. The @ipcc.bsky.social #AR6 conclusions show that that heat extremes have become more intense & more frequent across the world due to human-induced climate change.

Unsere Kinder und Enkel werden uns bitter verfluchen. Die #Erderhitzung lässt sich auch durch Nullemissionen nicht zurückdrehen, nur die weitere Erhitzung stoppen. Denn CO2 bleibt Jahrtausende in der Luft. Kipppunkte kommen näher. Es wird kein Zurück geben.

Der Tankrabatt kostete den deutschen Steuerzahler 1,6 Mrd. Euro. Der Einbau einer Klimaanlage in ein Klassenzimmer kostet im Durchschnitt rund 5000 Euro. Bedeutet: Für 2 Monate billiger Tanken hätte man sage & schreibe 320.000 Klassenzimmer hitzefit machen können. Prioritäten…so wichtig!

I think we just passed oops.

Come work with us and do research in Germany’s only national park in the Alps, iconic Berchtesgaden Nationalpark! We are looking to fill a PostDoc position in vegetation ecology (tinyurl.com/PostDocBerch...) and a PhD position in mountain forest dynamics (tinyurl.com/PhDBerchtesg...).

🌱 From New Phytologist: Tiny leaf pores may play a larger role than expected in shaping plant microbiomes. Stomatal traits could influence which microbes enter, persist, and affect plant health. (Gail Taylor) ▶️ nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... #PlantScience #PlantBiology

Das Strandbad in Halle, das Gäste offenbar nur nach einer bademeisterlichen Deutschprüfung ins Bad lassen möchte, bebildert die Ankündigung mit einem Retter der DLRG. Eine solche Regelung steht im Widerspruch zu den Teilhabe-Grundsätzen der DLRG, die nun rechtlich dagegen vorgeht. 👍🏼

Kew Gardens recording 35.1ºC today breaks its previous May record in 1922 before this spell by NEARLY 5ºC and breaks its June maximum temperature record set in 1976 by 0.5ºC - this also beats the previous May UK maximum record by OVER 2ºC (32.8ºC, 1922/44). An incredible anomaly
