Had lots of fun last week at Stanford, chatting all about the Amazon and sharing lots of tree knowledge! @thisanna.bsky.social @clariceperryman.bsky.social @sunithapangala.bsky.social

Would you like to work with us on filling tree biodiversity and biomass knowledge gaps in the Brazilian Amazon? Are you an expert in tropical botany/plant ecology and knows or want to learn remote sensing? Then this job is for you! Postdoc - U Manchester jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

So, anyone going to AGU this week?

Hey did you know primary forest loss in Brazil decreased by ***36%*** in 2023 relative to 2022, hitting its lowest level since 2015? See more at WRI's Forest Pulse: research.wri.org/gfr/latest-a... #ShareGoodNewsToo
