Two quotes from this piece - well worth a read!

'there are more reporting rain gauges in the UK county of Oxfordshire than the entire Congo Basin'

'Africa will be hardest hit by climate change, but has contributed the least to causing that change'

88 m tall tree in Brazil! Angelim vermelho (Dinizia excelsa)

Read about the discovery and our journey up the Jari river to visit this giant tree here: https://t.co/nu2AyIAc3X

The recently-discovered tallest known tropical tree is straight, sits in a valley in Borneo, is longer than a soccer field, and is heavier than a 737-800. Find out more in our open access piece here: https://t.co/sRX7yBOGjY

We can now map tree architecture with lasers!

Check out this PCA. Interesting to see the open-grown trees cluster around high path fraction - a proxy for hydraulic efficiency.
