#AMAPwebinar September 30th, 11:00 (CET) -Save the date- Damien RIUS, CR Researcher at UMR CNRS Chrono-Environnement, Besançon (France), presents "Wildfires and insect outbreaks in Boreal forests. A combined approach using paleo-ecology, sedimentary DNA and modelling" amap.cirad.fr/fr/edit-even...

🌿 Doing science deep in the #Congo rainforest? Lucette Adet, postdoc at CREAF, is doing just that with the European project #CoForFunc. 📍They need to walk 30 km to the field site! 👉 The goal: to understand how tropical forests grow, survive, and handle environmental stress like #drought.

Did you know that wild plant harvesting is an ancient practice that remains vital—from medicine to food and cosmetics? 🌿 Yet its ecological impact is overlooked. In a new study, we assessed 692 species in France (12% of the flora) to uncover drivers and conservation gaps. #WildPlants #Conservation

The NEOFire team has now finished another experimental fire campaign at Serra das Araras! This is the 8th consecutive year we burn savanna plots to investigate the effects of altered fire regimes on the Cerrado @ioliverasmenor.bsky.social @umramap.bsky.social @ecioxford.bsky.social @biology.ox.ac.uk

New paper online by @vincyane-badouard.bsky.social et al. @umramap.bsky.social in Agriculture and Forest Meteorology: "Using high penetration airborne LiDAR and dense UAV scanning to produce accurate 3D maps of light availability in dense tropical forest" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

First post on Bluesky! 🌿 Excited to share our new study in Ecography, led by Maxime Lenormand: combining naturalist inventories and satellite data to map plant biodiversity. Here’s a bioregionalization of the flora of France! 🔗 nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Only a pre-print for now, but after 4 years of hard work I couldn't resist sharing this! The Global Canopy Atlas: analysis-ready maps of 3D structure for the world's woody ecosystems 📜: doi.org/10.1101/2025... Huge team effort led by the brilliant Fabian Fischer!

Can tropical rainforest trees keep their cool? Now out in @globalchangebio.bsky.social we explored whether intraspecific variation in leaf energy balance was a result of adaptation to local climate. doi.org/10.1111/gcb....
