Are tropical #forests keeping up with climate change? Not quite, it turns out. In study led by @jeaggu.bsky.social in @science.org, we used a massive plot dataset from across Americas to check whether tree characteristics are tracking #climatechange. They hardly do. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Check this piece on BBC Future where I talk a bit about how large-scale experiments, like AmazonFACE, can transport forests into the future, so we can capture a glimpse (before it's too late) of what would happen with climate change www.bbc.com/future/artic...
