It's rewarding to hear a leading voice in the industry recognize the launch of this product - the culmination of the past seven years of my career - as a milestone for both @planet and for the EO sector as a whole
Recently, @planet announced the launch of its Forest Carbon Diligence product - a global, 30-meter historical time series of forest carbon, as well as tree height and cover, expected to be used in carbon accounting projects.

Really important research this week found that climate change is creating “zombie forests” in California. The Sierra Nevada has already warmed by about 1.2 degrees C, which means a fifth of conifer forests in the Sierra Nevada are now in places that have grown too hot for them.

What’s a zombie forest? California’s conifers are temporarily cheating death as temperatures rise faster than the trees can shift their range. Research led by Academy postdoc @avephill maps the impact, & could inform conservation methods. Learn more here: bit.ly/3Z5EsV0

Some forests in the Sierra Nevada are mismatched to their climate, which raises questions about how to manage them in the future.

As the climate changes, trees struggle to keep up. A new Stanford study finds ~20% of all Sierra Nevada conifers are no longer suited to the climate around them. After a major disturbance like a wildfire, they likely will not return.

California's Zombie Forests
Stanford-led study reveals a fifth of California’s Sierra Nevada conifer forests are stranded in habitats that have grown too warm for them.

I'm so excited to share the culmination of my primary PhD research in the lab of @LizHadly! We analyzed thousands of bones from raptor pellets and subfossil deposits to track small mammal community change in the Anthropocene 🐀🐇🐿 frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Excited to share this new paper out this week in @PNAS with a great team of co-authors led by @OrnithoAle w/ @earth_chris, @rafaelmongecr, @beckyck, @katherinelauck and others examining how biodiversity and infrastructure drive tourism in Costa Rica! tinyurl.com/4d83fk5f (1/7)

So excited to share my first publication, co-authored by Allison Stegner and @LizHadly! We use pellets from Yellowstone to confirm that raptors faithfully sample local small mammal diversity. 🦉🐀 cambridge.org/core/journals/…
