Hello world!
This is the Global Dendrometer Network 🌍.
We have been founded by the growing community of researchers and practitioners working with high-resolution tree diameter measurements: from microscopic movements to forest-scale insights. 🌳

Such an ingenious, informative and fun figure! From a new review on the origins of allopolyploids, where the origins are conceptualized as alternative routes through a maze, comprising a sequence of events🧪
Yes, it’s hot.
More than 10°C above normal for widespread regions of southern England.

Catching up #dataviz for #30dayChartChallenge Day5 Experimental. Which flower attracts which pollinator? 🌸🐝🦋
Played around with data from the UK Pollinator Monitoring Scheme. For bees or any pollinator plant some lavender, for butterflies go with buddleja aka butterfly bush.

(Review out today, in which we ask whether xylem disconnection arising early in wood anatomy is convergent with disconnection seen across tall plants and whether tree evolution requires disconnection given periodic drought.)
As we move into the final days of the year, 2025 has just overtaken 2022 as warmest year-to-date for Central England.
Given the forecast, it looks likely that 2025 will end up being the warmest calendar year for this region since records began in 1659.
The top 3 warmest will be 2022, 2023 & 2025.
There's only 600 m2 of forest per person in the UK. That's less than a 25 x 25 m block. Stats from Chris Quine at #BES2025

Species distributions aren’t just about where species occur, but how survival, reproduction and development vary across environments.
We formalise the Demographic Niche Concept to link niche theory and demography.
