Women, non-native English speakers & those form low-income countries are disadvantaged in science but by how much? We found that women with non-English first languages from low-income countries publish up to 70% fewer in English than their counterparts. 1/5 doi.org/10.1371/jour... #languagebarriers

I wrote my new Nature World View in this transition — one last reflection before leaving Colombia. It explains why inequities persist in science, even when dressed up as inclusion, and why we must stop mistaking access for change. 👉 rdcu.be/eGEun

Just got the final proofs of my book💓 Available on Amazon worldwide next week Very exciting! I’ve packed into it everything I’ve learned about writing and publishing over the past 20 years I really hope it helps many jump over the writing and publishing barriers💪

A new study in Nature Climate Change shows contrasting biological production trends over land and ocean. Led by Yulong Zhang at Duke. I am glad to be part of the team. The last study that looked at production over both land and ocean was published in 1998. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

How do tropical #trees deal with droughts? The answer is published today in @science.org Our pantropical #treering analysis revealed 2.5% growth reduction during #drought years. Yet, growth declined by >10% in 1/4 of 500 study sites, and in hotter & drier regions. doi.org/10.1126/scie... 🌍🍁🌐 (1/4)

Last publication of @h-zhang.bsky.social 's PhD thesis is finally out! This study tests optimality theory on the effect of vapour pressure deficit using tree trait data collected in West Africa

Happy to share our new #NatureComms paper, "Seasonal stabilization effects slowed the greening of the Northern Hemisphere over the last two decades" led by @uarizona.bsky.social PhD Candidate Wen Zhang w/ @trevorkeenan.bsky.social and others www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We want to thank reviewer #2 for the very constructive comments. We were able to incorporate all of them. The manuscript is now much more clear.

📢📢🔥🔥🔥 I am so excited to announce our book about Fire in the South American Ecosystems! It has 14 Chapters led mostly by south american authors. Thanks to all authors for their valuable contribution! link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

Tropical forests are heating up. Can they cope? | Science | AAAS www.science.org/content/arti...

New in @sciencemagazine, a review on Scaling plant responses to heat (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...). Increased temperature along with acute heat waves threaten the ability of terrestrial vegetation to act as a carbon sink, but predicting how plants will respond to heat is challenging.

Deforestation in Colombia increased in 2024 after two years of decline, just as the environment ministry had warned since April last year. Experts fear that the increase will continue in 2025 and that armed groups will continue to hinder the progress of conservation strategies with communities.

Our new research shows that forest recovery from tree mortality has slowed in recent decades. This reduction is primarily associated with rising temperatures and increased water scarcity. Recovery of forest canopy water content lags behind that of vegetation greenness www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I've released the 2025 update of the WGLC global lightning dataset today. Daily and monthly data lightning density and stroke energy covering the period 2010-2024 are now available! doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

Studying environmental sciences is about studying our life support system. It should not be partisan.

🌳🌲55% of mountain tree species studied in planting experiments in the Colombian Andes maintained their growth at their upper survival temperature, while 45% reduced it 👉Read more here: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Thank you DC for another amazing AGU! #AGU24 did not disappoint, and it was great to see lab members presenting and discussing their research (@savcardenas.bsky.social & Zexi Shen). Now, the introvert in me will need a day (or week) to decompress and do some deep breathing exercises 😅!!!

Ready to present my poster at #AGU24, about dust extreme events in Arizona and their implications for #PV energy generation! See you on Thursday 12, 1:40pm shorturl.at/2ZEoZ

This is my first time attending the @agu.org conference in person 🥳 #AGU24 I’ll see you on Wednesday at my poster session. agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me...

We are looking for OSPA judges! If you are attending #AGU2024 & interested in Consequences of Drought and Heat Stress for Terrestrial Vegetation, come to our sessions (B21H, B21I, B23I, B24A) & help our students out! agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/me... agu24.ipostersessions.com/?s=login&dest=reviewer

Looking forward to learning lots about the latest research and news from the environmental and climate science bsky communities! As a first post, here is a quick hello from my lab group @uarizona.bsky.social!
