How do forests respond to drought? @DrLauraMeredith, @c_werner, and I led an interdisciplinary campaign to answer this ? in the unique Biosphere2 rainforest. First results from #B2WALD focus on ecosystem fluxes of H2O, CO2, and VOCs. Out now in Science!

Plant functional adaptations, water use strategies, and soil interactions determine drought impact and recovery in forests.

I've got an open postdoc position in my group in Basel to develop H isotopes of PLFAs as indicators of soil microbial metabolism. Will begin review of applications on 15 Sept. More info and application instructions here: https://t.co/7wUEQOr3V8

Excited that my @snsf_ch Starting Grant has been funded! We’ll be looking at how soil microbial communities and their metabolisms change in response to drought, and the impacts this has on carbon cycling

Our new #B2WALD paper in @NatureComms highlights how drought and recovery influence soil VOC fluxes. Very nice work led by @gnnpugliese
Our manuscript from the B2WALD campaign has been published in @NatureComms!!! Drought and recovery have a major impact on soil VOC fluxes, affecting the atmospheric VOC budget with possible further feedback on atmospheric chemistry and climate. https://t.co/xNKfHIK8WC

New #B2WALD paper out in @NatureMicrobiol! Congrats to @Linneakh80 who led this effort to determine how drought impacts VOC production by soil microbes
New paper out in @NatureMicrobiol! Combining SIP and multi-omics, we found increased emissions of 'leaky' volatile microbial metabolites during drought due to increased production and buildup as carbon cycling efficiency and consumption decreased. https://t.co/dGWPOKlhDj

New #B2WALD paper led by Angelika Kuebert just published in PCE. We show that in situ isotopic monitoring of water transpired by leaves can be used to distinguish differences in plant source water among species and changes in water source with drought

Nice new work from Yao-Ping Wang, @Ding_Oliver_HE, and others about the influence of salinity on H isotope fractionation in mangroves in a Chinese estuary, and how this signal is translated to sedimentary leaf waxes
