New webpages highlight #FloridaTech campus as a haven for wildlife.
https://t.co/KeXbHpYomy Pics of campus wildlife and habitats. Mini-stories feature #rangechanges, #climatechange and #urbanconservation. Watch for updates as we add more content - larval hostplants & fish next!
Always happy to publish with @PalaeoNick, @palaeolim & colleagues! #Ecuador#CloudForest#Palaeoecology

I spent time with Tom at the Biological Dynamics of Forest Fragments Project near Manaus, which he founded and helped fund for decades. He cared deeply about Amazon forests and Amazon people. He leaves a major legacy. RIP
New Amazonian fire paper from our group.
Scarce fire activity in north and north-western Amazonian forests during the last 10,000 years https://t.co/dWVH3AHJ1b
Fantastic new paper from @crystalmcmic. Exciting to see paleo and neoecology coming together in thinking about Pre-Columbian Amazonia doi:10.1111/nph.16888

Forests as mountains. This #map shows aboveground forest carbon located in the #Amazon. It presents biomass as 3D elevation surface, so the higher the "mountain," the more #carbon stored within that area. Data: Alessandro Baccini et al. Map: @g_fiske
The upstream water supply to the Mismi glacier is the Amazonian forest. Direct hydrological links connect modern deforestation in the lowlands and impoverishment of water to the upslope movement of cloud immersion wetting cloud forests and supplying water to glaciers and puna.
A blog that I wrote about revisiting a section of the Amazon I last saw in 1988. Many mixed feelings, but every time I go I find out more about this incredible place, science, and myself.
