What is #ForestDieback? What is #ReDeC? What do models project? How do we bridge science and forest management to anticipate and mitigate dieback? All these questions are addressed in this interview 👇 (in Spanish with subtitles) www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtxe... @uva-es.bsky.social

And we have our results! 💥 We have dated a cedar that is 1,544 years old, and two others exceed 1,500 years. All three are older than the previously oldest one (1,481 years). In total, we have already identified eight cedars over 1,000 years old. 🌲👴👵 @FundacionEndesa @pnteide @CabildoTenerife

Right: Relation between March mean air temperature (°C) in Kyoto and the day of the year of the Japanese cherry tree peak flowering for the period between 1890 and 2024.

Communal deciduous oak dehesas, once vital agrosilvopastoral systems, are biodiversity hotspots for old-growth species. Now largely unprotected and abandoned, they urgently need recognition to meet EU biodiversity goals. 🧪🍁🌱🌏🌐🌿 New paper out: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

The peer review system is in serious crisis. Finding reviewers is harder than ever. Many colleagues refuse to "work for free", yet they continue to submit their own research for publication. We either need to properly recognize peer review in evaluations or rethink the entire model 🧪🌍🍁

New insights into the extreme potential age of the genus #Juniperus. The common juniper (Juniperus communis) can live for over 1,500 years in Northern Europe, making it the oldest known tree species on the continent. 🍁🌱🌿🌍🧪 esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

A truly fascinating and still largely unexplored ecosystem! We investigated #tree growth in cloud forests across the entire #Macaronesian region and found that local environmental conditions play a greater role in shaping tree growth than species-specific traits. # LAUREL project 🍁

New equipment! We just got the CaptuRING system to take core images. Shout out to Danny King of Dendro Engine Studios for building the rig. The blueprint is detailed in this excellent paper by Garcia-Hidalgo et al. (2022): onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1... 🧪

AI in general, and Machine Learning specifically, are changing the way we process big data in ecology. Recently, we reconstructed 450 years of management (pollarding) in Mediterranean oaks using tree rings—1,588 pollarding events at the tree level! doi.org/10.3390/f151...

Pollarding, the practice of pruning tree branches at a specific height, has been crucial for managing open forests in Europe. This practice has supported the persistence of highly biodiverse open wood...
