While warming explains the range expansion of defoliators, here we show that proximity to road; including logging roads, is also a key driver for northward spreading of spongy moth in Ontario's forests. doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2…

We are searching for a postdoc for NSERC / CRSNG project to build or adapt laser induced fluorescence LiDAR for forest ecosystems with potential research visits to Forschungszentrum Jülich in Germany. Please share: remotesensing-mcmaster.org/join/

I'll be attending #AGU23 next week! Join me Tuesday to hear about remote sensing of past forest biomass for modelling/projecting forest growth under future climate scenarios (using #GEE). Tuesday, 2:42PM, MC3009 West in session B23A. agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/meeti…

Heading to #agu23 ? Check out the enclosed website for more information on the panels in which I will participate. See you there! agu.confex.com/agu/fm23/meeti… #networking #climatechange #vegetation #reproduciblescience

If you are going to #AGU23 either remotely or in person, please consider signing up to be a reviewer for the Outstanding Student Presentation Awards (OSPA). We need more reviewers! Students can also review other students!

Please RT. Come join me - I offer a fully funded #PhD position on a nice, exciting topic – retrieval of leaf angle info with multi-angle #remotesensing. 🇪🇪 University of Tartu Tartu Observatory. International candidates welcome! Apply by 20 March 2024, full details here: tinyurl.com/y448a4pa

🌍 Join me for an inspiring panel discussion on International Women's Day! We'll be exploring the vital role of women in advancing open mapping for #SustainableDevelopment. Let's celebrate diversity and empowerment together! #InternationalWomensDay #SDGs #Mapping #WomenInSTEM

Our ongoing work on carbon emission from the 2023 wildfires in Canada has won the Google Geo for Good Impact Award. Thanks Zilong Zhong and Chinyere Ottah for leading this work and NSERC / CRSNG and TIPS_SPIIE for supporting our research projects

Why leaf chlorophyll content and photosynthetic capacity are sometimes tightly coupled, sometimes not? Liyao Yu 🌿🌳 found their different light acclimation rates might be the reason!Great to work with the old chlorophyll gang Holly Croft Cheryl Rogers 🇨🇦 & Jing doi.org/10.1111/pce.14….

So excited that our work has been published in Plant Cell & Environment ! Proud to achieve this with amazing Xiangzhong(Remi) Luo and great collaborators Holly Croft Cheryl Rogers 🇨🇦 and Jing 🥳

We have a new preprint on Earth & Space Science Open Archive mapping peat depth and carbon storage of the Hudson Bay Lowlands. Peat depth increases with increasing distance from the coastline due to ongoing glacial isostatic adjustment since ice retreat began. essopenarchive.org/doi/full/10.22…

We’re excited to announce that applications for our #PeatNeeds microfundsare now open! #PeatECR (within 7 years of terminal degree) are eligible for funding. For more information or to apply see docs.google.com/forms/d/1oqFDx… Spread the word! 1/3

Variable Retention Harvesting (VRH) is a forest management that involves keeping certain trees or patches of trees during harvest to promote biodiversity & carbon (C) sequestration. It has been recognized as one of the Natural Climate Solutions in the forestry sector [1/6]

Today at BE-STEMM, I spoke about our research at the Gonsamo Group on quantifying carbon emissions from wildfires in Canada using machine learning. Special thanks to my co-authors: Zilong Zhong , Cheryl Rogers 🇨🇦 , José Bermúdez , and Alemu Gonsamo. #Wildfire #RemoteSensing #ML

The Hudson Bay Lowlands peat depth, carbon stock, ground measurements and associated datasets are now online here: doi.org/10.5683/SP3/TI… We also have wet and dry peat spectral measurements for full peat depth at 5cm interval for anyone interested.

Heading to #ESA2024 conference in Long Beach, CA. I will be presenting our study on “Seasonal variation in the relationship between leaf chlorophyll content and photosynthetic capacity” which recently got published in PCE. Come and say hi if you want to know more about this work!
