Excited to share that our paper “Climate Benefit and Ecological Cost Trade-offs for Ocean Iron Fertilization” has been published in Nature🌊🌍 Many thanks to my for contributing authors for their insightful discussion, help and support!

Deploying ocean iron fertilization — a strategy for carbon dioxide capture — in higher latitudes rather than near the equator could reduce environmental impacts while still achieving removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, according to a study in Nature. go.nature.com/4hJtalk 🌎🌊🧪

This is figure 1, which shows atmospheric net CO2 drawdown and CDR efficiency across regions and fertilization intensities.

Check out the latest research from our group at UC Irvine. We show that some plants (e.g., sedges and cypresses) can significantly increase their volatile emissions during a heatwave and adversely impact air quality. #BVOC @huiwangisop.bsky.social ps.uci.edu/news/3258

When Green Turns Gray: How Heatwaves Turn Plants into Unexpected Polluters

New UC Irvine research reveals how extreme heat events can make everyday greenery a hidden contributor to air pollution.

Dear colleagues, I would like to use my first Bluesky post to share our highlighted paper in PNAS about the discovery of a strong temperature response, with a Q10 over 7, for isoprene emissions from sedges and their role in affecting air quality during heat waves. www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...

Heat waves may trigger unexpected surge in aerosol and ozone precursor emissions from sedges in urban landscapes | PNAS

Biogenic isoprene emissions from herbaceous plants are generally lower than those from trees. However, our study finds widespread isoprene emission...
