Readwise würfelte mir heute dieses Zitat in die Wiedervorlage und ich musste direkt nachsehen, wann der Artikel geschrieben wurde. 2014. Wer hätte gedacht, dass sich 6 Jahre später alles noch viel schlimmer entwickeln würde?

Went for a wander through the woods and heathland around Eyeworth pond in the New Forest yesterday. Even at 10 in the morning the birdsong was stunning: mostly song thrush, wren, blackcap, chaffinch. A single common redstart was my 1st of the year (male, singing), and at least 2 cuckoos, 1 seen in flight. Also 2 common lizards darted away into the bracken. Crab apples in bloom and alive with droning bees.

Pan-tropical plant functional trait variation from space
Plant functional trait variation in tropical forests is central to predicting ecosystem responses to change. Informaiton on traits is limited relative to the diversity of climate, landforms, disturbance regimes and species present. These traits are central to modeled predictions of ecosystem change. We used a new spaceborne imagining spectrometer from the Italian Space Agency to sample roughly 1% of the tropical moist forest biome for traits along the Leaf Economics Spectrum, as well as data to…
