🌲🌳📰Forest acclimation to climate change is crucial for maintaining ecosystem resilience. Here, we propose a multi-proxy approach based on tree rings and tree-ring isotopes to assess the acclimation processes, essential for detecting ecosystem decline. https://t.co/bMSkndATEO

So happy to have this chapter of my thesis published. Together with @Lehmann_Lab
@Valenti04846103 @NinaBuchmann1 et al., we explorer the autotrophic and heterotrophic 2H fractionation processes in carbohydrates of plants with C3, C4, and CAM CO2 fixation

⚠️ Soil salinization represents a global threat to agriculture 🧐 in our recent scientific article, just published in @iScience_CP, we proposed some mitigation solutions "nature based solutions" but also technological advances! 👉 here the link: https://t.co/vXy7yPWdHr
