Amy Angert and I are recruiting a #postdoc to participate in a collaborative NSF-funded study of demographic responses to climate across the geographic range of the scarlet monkeyflower. Please repost! jobs.ncsu.edu/postings/224...

Join the Laughlin lab and our new NSF funded project! Awesome opportunity to visit forests across the western US and examine the functional basis of demographic responses to drought and wildfire.

1st pub from Phd student Alicia Formanack synthesizing tree ring widths in drought-killed trees to show that, nope, there are no universal patterns. We present a framework combining previously described syndromes: flashy, decoupled, or declining?🌏🌐 doi.org/10.1111/nph.... @newphyt.bsky.social

New paper led by PhD student Elise Pletcher! Forecasts from simple, density-dependent population models are highly transferable to new sites. Adding env. covariates does little to improve prediction in-sample and worsens forecasts out-of-sample. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Excellent piece by @kristinayoung.bsky.social on the critical threat facing the USGS's Southwest Biological Science Center. We must rally and fight this senseless attack on science!!

A bit late but excited to see our new TREE paper out on integrating PSFs with resilience theory! www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

🚨 New paper, led by Cristina Barber. We used high-resolution aerial imagery to study tree mortality in a tropical landscape. Large, isolated trees were most likely to die--alarming finding! @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Yale School of the Environment is hiring an open-rank professor in temperate forest resilience! Come be my colleague!!!!! environment.yale.edu/jobs/faculty...

A nice summary from Nevada Today of our recent paper on Pinyon-Juniper woodland dynamics in @pnas.org. Check it out! www.unr.edu/nevada-today...

Dioecious plants have separate male and female individuals, and temperature sensitivity may vary between sexes. A study of a dioecious grass species, Texas Bluegrass, shows that poleward shifts will be shaped by male heat intolerance. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....

Hydrology Paper of the Day @bkshriver.bsky.social on why woody plants are apparently more prevalent in dryland areas: long-term increases in tree population are responsible for more young trees, and low rates of tree establishment over the past 400 years in the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau.

I'm hiring a postdoc! Themes: long-term data, plant reproduction, mast seeding, synthesis, macosystems biology. Also, reproducible tesearch. Target submission deadline: 22 June (for priority review). 1-2 year position, $60K/year. 🌲 🌲 🌲 www.higheredjobs.com/faculty/deta...

There is still time to apply for this position! If you have some spatial modelling skills and interest in wildfire, please consider applying.

Why has woody plant density been increasing in dryland ecosystems? In a new paper in @pnas.org we show that increasing tree density in pinyon-juniper woodlands could largely be a result of long-term population growth, rather than recent anthropogenic effects. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

We begin reviewing applications next week!
