Want to learn about the power of stable isotopes to investigate plant C-use strategies and responses to environmental change?! Come work with us! 10 days left to apply! Can't make the deadline? Send us an email!
Interested in stable isotope physiology? Want to know how plants have metabolically responded to environ change? 📢We're recruiting a PhD student to investigate the environ and biochemical factors that shape d2H of plant cellulose! App. deadline Dec 10: bit.ly/PhD-IsoPhys

I'm hiring a postdoc to work on a new project to redesign the 3D geometry of leaf cells to influence photosynthetic capacity. You'll join a team of scientists with the longterm goal of drawing down atmospheric CO2 with the help of plants. Details:tinyurl.com/y5lsbq6n

Online teaching is an opportunity for community sharing. We are posting "Plant Ecology in a Changing World" lectures/models/campuswalks (plantecology.net) and YOUTUBE videos (youtube.com/channel/UC_lKrGP…). Subscribe if you would like as videos will be uploaded weekly.

I have a joke about stable isotopes - would you prefer the lighter or the heavier version?

Wondering why mature leaves are depleted in 13C compared to expanding leaves? What does it mean for interpreting WUE and global gross primary production? Check out our new paper led by Nara Vogado, with Klaus Winter,@GrahamDFarquhar and @LucasCernusak academic.oup.com/aob/article…

Don’t discount the circadian clock when it comes to optimising whole-plant physiology for improved crop water-use efficiency!

A really interesting article by Simon et al (plantphysiol.org/content/183…) @ant_dodd indicating that many elements of circadian regulation can influence WUE in Arabisposis. My commentary: plantphysiol.org/content/183…

For a really great overview on the importance of the circadian clock for understanding seasonal fluxes in CO2 and water vapour in natural settings and for improving crop performance, check out: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… @rescodedios

[⚠️ biologists] Answer yourself quickly: Which key innovations were required for tree evolution? Why bryophytes have never managed to develop trees? What is a vascular plant? Our last paper will probably blow up your dogmas about these basic questions 👇 nature.com/articles/s41477-0…
