Does anyone know of attempts to mount eddy covariance systems directly to a tree canopy (extending 10-15m above) as an alternative to tower installation?
As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽💻
Happy to be at BlueSky, looking forward to leaving twitter behind :D. Sharing my SciFri interview to celebrate.
Science Friday@scifri.bsky.social · 3y agoIn some forests, canopy soil is formed way up above the ground. Jessica Murray, a Ph.D. at Utah State University, says that she’s seen an entirely unique world residing on the tops of trees in Costa Rica. 🧪 Learn more: www.sciencefriday.com/segments/tre...
