✨Program Highlights #SOTM 2026 -- We're ready at Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan

🚨We are hiring! Looking for a Research technician to support the University of Liverpool (UK) LIFER lab (Mass Spectroscopy facility)🥼 and my lab's ongoing projects, in particular, climate station installation around the world's tropical mountains🌄. All details: tinyurl.com/2bec8act

Fabaceae emerge as amongst the most embolism-resistant tree families in Amazonia. Forests in the Brazilian and Guiana Shield regions, where Fabaceae abundance is high, are expected to have greater drought resistance than Western Amazon forests.

"The academic structure … makes planning for a family feel like an impossible luxury." In this #ScienceWorkingLife, two postdocs share how, as women in academia, having children can feel impossible—and how talking about it makes them feel less alone. https://scim.ag/46uBWgD #WomenInScienceDay

Tree diversity is changing in the Amazon and Andes. Belen Fadrique leads our analysis in @natecoevo.nature.com w/ 400 plots + 40 years of RAINFOR records. www.nature.com/articles/s41... Hot, drier, more fragmented forests are losing species. Many in the Andes + western Amazon are gaining them.

New deadline: February 4th Still time to apply! www.liverpool.ac.uk/courses/expl...

Very happy to share this new article on Andes-Amazon tree diversity change. We found that over the last 4 decades, tree richness changed differently across the Andes-Amazon regions. Thanks to the many researchers across the world who made this possible! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Keep reading!

Apply for this fully funded PhD studentship in Tropical mountain forest ecology! Join us at University of Liverpool to carry out research on plant range shifts in the cloud forests.

Great day spent with my brilliant new(ish) colleague @belenfadrique.bsky.social installing a branch warming experiment at Ness Botantic Gardens, replicated across Europe. Testing how the solstice enables beech to synchronise fruit production (masting). Results next spring… doi.org/10.1038/s414...

New paper! Collaborative work to synthesize ideas about climate-change driven species redistribution -- it took 2 years, but we're super excited to see it out! @afredston.bsky.social has all the details below.

Change is driving species on the move across time and space and we need to understand the entireity of that picture! Truly a pleasure to work with @afredston.bsky.social, @mwtingley.bsky.social, and many others over the past two years to bring this conceptual vision to fruition! tinyurl.com/5n96tz3a

what is it REALLY like to be a #speciesonthemove? @mwtingley.bsky.social, @mhcneateclegg.bsky.social, Luke Evans, Brett Scheffers, an incredible team of co-authors, and I took a deep dive into this question. we argue that thermal gradients are all around us—in space and time...

Excellent new paper investigating changes in plant composition through time in the Arctic! Very impressive dataset! Thanks @nanitundra.bsky.social for leading this and getting me involved on a familiar question in an unfamiliar environment.
