New paper led by @corneliussenf.bsky.social out today @natcomms.nature.com shows that increasingly frequent waves of extreme forest dieback are predicted across Europe by Taylor's law of mean-var scaling applied to the past 35 years of satellite data. Link to 📜: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🌐🧪

🌍 New study led by François Ritter just out as preprint! Europe’s forests are losing carbon sink strength — a 44% drop by 2030 is projected, falling 29% short of EU targets. 🌳 Tree planting alone won’t be enough — 26% harvest cuts are needed too. Read it here: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-3...

Alarming decline in the carbon sink of European forests driven by disturbances

Forests are carbon sinks essential for climate change mitigation. However, increased harvests and natural disturbances across Europe have recently challenged this role. To project the future carbon si...

Looking ahead to 2025, we expect it to be slightly cooler than 2023 and 2024 at around 1.4C above preindustrial levels, as El Nino has faded away and cooler conditions are developing in the tropical Pacific.

We have updated our forest age map to version 2.1. Updates are minor, and version 2.1 uses the ESA-CCI biomass maps version 5 during the model forward runs. We are moving the 100m resolution to an S3 bucket for more user-friendly access. Stay tuned. dataservices.gfz-potsdam.de/panmetaworks...

Depuis des années, les scientifiques alertent sur la réduction des faits à de simples opinions. Depuis des années, les médias ouvrent leurs plateaux aux marchands de doutes et de haine au nom du pluralisme sans leur porter la moindre contradiction, y compris sur le service public. Et on s’étonne.
