    A during the critical stages of post-fire recovery could filter individuals that perform better under water stress. This could be particularly relevant for species with a narrow post-fire establishment window that depends strongly on water availability 🔥🌱

  7. Koalas at risk of death once seven-day temperatures rise beyond 27C
    Nutritional and climate refugia for koalas

    "Extreme heat is a major factor in the number of deaths and hospitalisations of Australians every year....An analysis of 11,862 koala rescue admissions to NSW animal hospitals found the marsupials were more likely to die when the seven-day average maximum temperature was greater than 27 degrees Celsius."

    "Dr Mella said water stations could be left out as well as shade structures built for koalas in hot regions like north-west NSW. We do that for cattle and we do that for animals that we use for our needs, so we really should be doing it for wildlife as well."

    When koalas rests low to the ground in the shade trying to beat the heat they are usually chased and injured by dogs and car. >>

  18. Here in Denmark we finally had a bit of rain again.

    Unfortunately I managed to capture it all on camera. I'd hoped for a bit more..

  23. #Stomata, which are the pores on the leaf surface which regulate CO2 coming into the leaf, but also the amount of water vapour lost (transpiration), react relatively slowly to environmental changes. One of my PhD students just got his first paper out, showing for beech that shade adapted leaves are more responsive to changes in light. This has consequences for shaded leaves in the canopy of forest : more responsive stomata have a more efficient CO2 uptake and thus #Photosynthesis. Plants under drought were also more responsive, reducing their amount of water lost by transpiration and increasing thereby their #WaterUseEfficiency.

  32. “Pea-sized hail,” the National Weather Service forecast.

    Well, we got ‘em, all 14 of ‘em, and they have all now fallen here in #SantaFe. Guess that’s it.

    Oh, and a momentary little pitter-patter of desperately-needed rain.

    Everything’s dying here. All the trees. You can see the change in our piñons and junipers in mere half-day intervals. All turning browner and browner. 👀

But a worsening #drought, driven in part by climate change, is drying up the river, and states are fighting over #water rights. Horizons moderator William Brangham explores what that means for communities and industries that depend on that water with Luke Runyon, Wade Crowfoot, and Joel Ferry.”
