ERC-funded project, improving our understanding of the rates and drivers of tree mortality globally, and channeling this knowledge into models.

How does forest definition affect the quantification of disturbance regimes from satellite products? Quite a bit in some ecoregions! Check out this paper by @NAcil_research @Wild_inBrum @TomPughLab

A belated tweet to share our contribution for the #WFCKorea on the implication of forest definition for quantifying disturbance regime characteristics in Mediterranean forests @TomPughLab @Wild_inBrum

Never gave a talk which had to take a break due to fire-alarm. Luckily a flase alarm. Thanks to Philipp Porada from @unihh for letting me present our work, also done by Phillip Papastefanou @daijunliu @nanimuelbert @TomPughLab @anjarammig #ecology #traits @BECC @treemort_ERC

Productivity increases as a driver of the increasing canopy mortality rate trend in European forests over 1985-2010. New paper led by Marieke Scheel coming out of her @lunduniversity bachelor's thesis @sussesu @becc_sweden @TreeMort_ERC @ERC_Research https://t.co/70dkFe4vHe (1/n)

[Tom Pugh @TomPughLab]

Congratulations to @NAcil_research who submitted her PhD thesis on Friday after 4 years of really dedicated work!! A really impressive assessment of how forest disturbance rates and patterns vary across the globe @TreeMort_ERC @Wild_inBrum @sussesu @corneliussenf @BIFoRUoB

*How* do we know tropical forests soak up carbon and help tackle the #climatecrisis? 1000s of people measuring tree growth & death, in 1000s of plots - for many, many years! @juliapgjones

If you're interested in European forests from a policy or scientific direction, please do fill in this survey - it's aimed at improved European monitoring information.

@NAcil_research showing how forest disturbance patch size varies across the world

[Nezha Acil 🌍🛰🌳🌲🌴 @NAcil_research]

Comparison between inside and outside intact forests shows that humans are amplifying and homogenising disturbance rates across the world. Want to learn more? Come along and watch my oral presentation at #AGU21 https://t.co/mNtroFUYQ7 @TomPughLab @Wild_inBrum @corneliussenf

Short explainer on how stopping deforestation is needed to help hit the 1.5° target by @TomPughLab. @BIFoRUoB

[The Conversation @ConversationUK]

As part of its push for a deal at #COP26, the UK government is expected to announce a plan to 'halt and reverse' global deforestation by 2030

An expert explains just how much would this help limit global warming ⬇️🧵

[TreeMort_ERC @TreeMort_ERC]

After 18 months of zoom calls, fantastic to get together for a @TreeMort_ERC and friends writing retreat, great discussions and some very on-brand pumpkin carving! Thanks @nanimuelbert @NAcil_research @daijunliu @J_astigarraga @Phillip_Papa @AnneHEckes @TweetSijeh @sussesu !

[Fernanda Z Teixeira @fernandaztex]

Next Thursday (10am BRT time) I'll host a seminar by Adriane Esquivel-Muelbert on forest dynamics in the Amazon.

Attend it on PPG Ecologia UFRGS youtube channel:

[Tom Pugh @TomPughLab]

Did harvested area in Europe increase by 49% in 2016-18 vs 2011-15 as estimated by Ceccherini et al. in @nature last year? In this response we argue *no* and revised estimates and clarification from the authors support a much more nuanced interpretation https://t.co/mpnIV1mXQH
