Really enjoyed this study from Ruby Paroissien at UNSW and the Australian Plantbank, looking at seed dispersal in the wet sclerophyll forests of SE Aus following the 2019/20 disaster fire season.
They found that post-fire seed dispersal from rainforest species was almost entirely absent 😟 hugely concerning when we have begun to see some of our oldest rainforests burn.
A highlight of the paper is Ruby's hand-drawn seed illustrations!

A non-art post, so apologies to the local feed.
But new paper from us at RISE on external fire plumes from compartments with exposed mass timber. Open access and includes a load of the data as supplementary materials for you to download and poke around with yourselves!
