The effect of solar energy development on plant diversity across spatial scales, Ohlert, Timothy J, Karban, Claire C, Munson, Seth M, Smith, Melinda D

The authors integrate dendrochronological records with range shifts to show that shifts in montane tree species are tightly linked to tree hydraulic properties. While climate-sensitive species track w...

A relatively small number of rapidly spreading wildfire events burn disproportionately large areas. But beyond area burned, do fast fires produce distinct postfire ecological outcomes? Here, we measur...

Background As solar energy development expands in desert regions, new installation practices and solar technologies seek to balance ecosystem conservation and energy generation (ecovoltaics). The Gemi...

Physics-based models still outperform artificial intelligence-based weather models in forecasting record-breaking extreme events.

Researchers have found that extreme hot-wet weather in 2024 triggered a spike in ecosystem respiration, mainly in tropical non-forests, significantly reducing the year’s land carbon sink and pushing t...

Machine learning upscaling analyses of global FLUXNET carbon and water flux measurements indicate that dryland vegetation productivity showed a negligible increase between 1982–2000 and 2001–2022, whe...

In episode 7 of the Hydrotalks podcast, our guest was Dr. Sally Thompson ( Sally Thompson – the UWA Profiles and Research Repository ). She is a Professor at the University of Western Australia, and t...

Here's what Congress rejected of the draconian cuts faced by NASA in FY 2026.

The study titled "Thylakoids reorganization enables driving photosynthesis under far‐red light in the microalga Nannochloropsis gaditana," published in «New Phytologist» and conducted by the research…

A prominent reporter in the Jeffrey Epstein case floated a startling possibility on Tuesday that powerful donors could be leaning on President Donald Trump to quash any damning information from being ...

Leaf stomata respond to temperature even when the leaf-to-air vapor gradient is held constant, yet the mechanisms for this response are unknown, and may be mediated by increases in hydraulic conducta...

Controversy has engulfed CBS amid mounting accusations of politicized management under the network’s new MAGA-curious chief.

This research highlights the significance of elucidating the mechanisms behind above-and below-ground organs. The varying trait coordination across clades indicates different resource acquisition str...

The planned closure of the National Center for Atmospheric Research would endanger decades of research at UW-Madison and UW-Milwaukee, scientists say.

The Trump Administration has vowed to dissolve the center that provides critical extreme weather and climate data for our nation.
