How much nitrogen are plants taking up from the soil? How efficient are they at building biomass with it? Are models doing a good job assessing it? Find your answers in our last publication (open access!): esd.copernicus.org/articles/16/...
Nitrogen deposition and climate drive plant nitrogen uptake while soil factors drive nitrogen use efficiency in terrestrial ecosystems
Abstract. The role of plants in sequestering carbon is a critical component in mitigating climate change. A key aspect of this role involves plant nitrogen (N) uptake (Nup) and N use efficiency (NUE),...

Cutting data climate collection – as the Trump administration is now trying to do – is like breaking a thermometer to avoid knowing you’ve got a fever.

📢 Just published in @globalchangebio.bsky.social! 🔥🌍 Our latest research shows that climate warming is causing soils in subarctic ecosystems to lose nitrogen (N) — and with it, carbon (C) that helps regulate our climate. dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb.... 🧵 A thread on what we found, and why it matters 👇

Did you ever wonder when to use "conifer", "gymnosperm", "needleleaf", "angiosperms" and "broadleaves"? Us too so we transformed the discussion into this viewpoint. I hope you enjoy the reading as much as we enjoyed the writing! @kateplantphys.bsky.social nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Cones and consequences: the false dichotomy of conifers vs broad‐leaves has critical implications for research and modelling
In plant science research and modelling, particularly from the northern hemisphere, the terms ‘needle-leaved’ and ‘conifer’ along with ‘broad-leaved’ and ‘angiosperm’ are often used synonymously, cre...
