My brilliant team decided that we should try our hand at silkscreening to improve sustainability of our lab swag.... every item is second hand, unique, we had a blast doing it, and they look amazing (highly recommend having a silkscreening aficionado in your midst!)

"How did you end up working in Accademia?"

[Dr. Merritt Turetsky @queenofpeat]

Live reporting from the bog. Zombie fires and persistent burning seems to accelerate permafrost thaw. Both fire and thaw release GHG emissions so we urgently need to understand their interactions.

On the way to day 2 if overwintering 🔥 sampling! Our team is growing as one of our @GNWT_ENR fire management partners has joined us! @queenofpeat @RAlfaroSanchez

This higher reproductive efficiency of jack pine can explain the greater resilience of this species to wildfire compared with black spruce -THE END-

Check out our new study on reproductive maturity in black spruce and jack pine 💚🎄💚🌲💚🎄💚

[Raquel Alfaro Sánchez @RAlfaroSanchez]

We also examined the reproductive efficiency i.e., the number of seedlings recruited per reproductive tree, and found that a reproductive jack pine can recruit on average three times more seedlings than a reproductive black spruce👉
