Israel Sampaio Filho is the guy. Music and science together is no longer a dream. Amazonian forests depend on ABA to play their role in maintaining the greenhouse gas exchange between biosphere and atmosphere

NGEE-T scientists Yanlei Feng et al just published a paper in Nature Communications linking frequency of convective storms in the Amazon basin to large tree mortality events (windthrows) & project increased forest disturbances from these dynamics from climate warming this century

Congrats to our own Lin Meng for being awarded the Science and SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists by the American Association for the Advancement of Science for work during her PhD at Iowa State University! Read more about the prize, Lin's essay, and an interview w/ Lin below.
City trees🌳are getting longer growing seasons - which could be good news (more flowers!🌸)… or maybe not. For her work studying how plants will respond @linmengmet has been awarded this years Science Prize for Young Scientists! Learn more--> @NGEETropics eesa.lbl.gov/berkeley-lab-po…

The latest model guidance has doubled down on a historic atmospheric river impacting NorCal early next week with intense rainfall, strong winds, and heavy snow (mostly above 7,000-8000 feet). This will likely be one of the strongest October storms in state history. #CAwx

#CaldorFire and #DixieFire putting up large pyrocumulus plumes today as they spread rapidly. Both wildfires have combined to burn nearly 1,000,000 acres.
