• Leaf optical properties impact leaf energy balance and thus leaf temperature. The effect of leaf development on mid-infrared (MIR) reflectance, and hence thermal emissivity, has not been ...
Since we are only in February, I’m sure winter is not over yet, but a week of temperatures in the 80s seems unusual even for a Florida winter. Because of these warm temperatures, there is a chance ...
The dark foliage of conifer trees dominates much of our landscape. It gets to be a bit overwhelming at times, so I’m always glad when spring leaf-out brings fresh, bright greens of the deciduous tree ...
A new study from Stockholm University reveals that spruce bark beetles, already infamous for killing millions of trees in Sweden, are also changing the forest microclimate. Using a combination of ...
Analysis of when and how fast temperate deciduous trees in North America grow suggests that the earlier onset of the growing season induced by climate change does not result in extra carbon ...
In elementary school, most of us learned the basic differences between deciduous and coniferous trees. Deciduous trees have leaves that change color and drop in the fall, and coniferous trees have ...
