How does forest definition affect the quantification of disturbance regimes from satellite products? Quite a bit in some ecoregions! Check out this paper by @NAcil_research @Wild_inBrum @TomPughLab
Never gave a talk which had to take a break due to fire-alarm. Luckily a flase alarm. Thanks to Philipp Porada from @unihh for letting me present our work, also done by Phillip Papastefanou @daijunliu @nanimuelbert @TomPughLab@anjarammig#ecology#traits @BECC @treemort_ERC
Congratulations to @NAcil_research who submitted her PhD thesis on Friday after 4 years of really dedicated work!! A really impressive assessment of how forest disturbance rates and patterns vary across the globe @TreeMort_ERC @Wild_inBrum @sussesu @corneliussenf @BIFoRUoB
If you're interested in European forests from a policy or scientific direction, please do fill in this survey - it's aimed at improved European monitoring information.
European Forest Information Network - #EFINET looks at ways to bring available remote sensing resources into pan-European forest information products. Take part in their survey and share what you would expect from a European forest monitoring system: forms.gle/QR98DeooRZWunjnWA
Interested in how the world’s forests are changing? Join our global symposium at @BIFoRUoB with world-leading speakers on ecology, ecophysiology, carbon accounting, forestry and socio-ecological systems. The event is FREE both in-person and online!

As part of its push for a deal at #COP26, the UK government is expected to announce a plan to 'halt and reverse' global deforestation by 2030
An expert explains just how much would this help limit global warming ⬇️🧵
Next Thursday (10am BRT time) I'll host a seminar by Adriane Esquivel-Muelbert on forest dynamics in the Amazon.
Attend it on PPG Ecologia UFRGS youtube channel:

Did harvested area in Europe increase by 49% in 2016-18 vs 2011-15 as estimated by Ceccherini et al. in @nature last year? In this response we argue *no* and revised estimates and clarification from the authors support a much more nuanced interpretation nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
