Long-term carbon sequestration as woody biomass in oaks is decoupled from photosynthesis and more sensitive to climate change.

The land absorbs one third of human CO2 emissions, making it critical to understand how tree growth will respond to climate change Drier air reduces photosynthesis and the processes of cell divis...

Tree-ring δ18O from Abies guatemalensis in Central America captures interannual variations in boreal summer rainfall Lighter δ18O years are associated with a weakening of the Caribbean Low-Level ...

npj Science of Plants - Hot and Hungry - High temperatures induce changes in leaf carbon dynamics and sugar isotope fingerprints

Large swathes of standing dead trees or ‘ghost forests’ can form owing to rising sea levels in coastal areas, but the extent to which this occurs is unclear. This study maps ghost forests at the indiv...

Long-term monitoring is essential to characterizing the responses of carbon and water fluxes to global environmental change drivers. This Review synthesizes the insights gained into these changes from...

Lamont scientists are working with lumber salvage companies to preserve old timbers from demolished structures that offer rich clues to climate data and human history.
