1/6 Mountains are hard to measure. A fixed grid over steep, folded terrain blurs hillsides together and buries local detail in coarse pixels. Alpine treelines, where forest gives way to alpine vegetation, are exactly where that blurring matters. So we built something that follows the mountains 👇

Three-dimensional view of a forested hillside in Olympic National Park, Washington. Alpine treeline elevational transects appear as red polygon outlines running up the slope, each spanning the transition from lower-elevation forest to higher-elevation alpine terrain.World map showing, for each HydroSHEDS watershed, the average difference in vegetation canopy height between the upper and lower segments of alpine treeline elevational transects. Darker blue marks watersheds with a larger canopy-height drop from lower to higher elevations, the expected forest-to-alpine decline.

Check out our new paper in GEB, led by @andrebellve.bsky.social and with help from @reymiyajima.bsky.social, on spatio-seasonal variation in avian dietary attributes. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Spatial and Seasonal Variation in Avian Dietary Strategies

Aim Diet is a fundamental aspect of vertebrate life history, shaping survival, recruitment, and fitness. While spatial variation in avian dietary characteristics has been studied, seasonal dynamics ...
