The lack of transparency in black box models can affect the trust in science-driven policy making. Participatory methods can bridge the gap between increasingly complex scientific methods and the people affected by their interpretations: bit.ly/3cdsuCF

Please just let me know if you're interested in publishing in a Frontiers journal, regarding your research on Forest-Climate Interactions. We have a great team of guest editors (@JessTreeBaker, Eduardo Maeda, me, and Dashan Wang).

Paper Alert👀📢: Shifts in structural diversity of Amazonian Forest edges detected using terrestrial laser scanning (Remote Sensing of Environment, 2022) In this paper, Maeda et al. explored #TLS to evaluate the structure of forest edges in the #Amazon Thread 1/

Even evergreen tropical forests can have seasonal dynamics, which may be sensitive to disturbance. A study in Nature Communications shows that forest fragmentation impacts canopy phenology dynamics in the Amazon forest. go.nature.com/3v16pkH

Check out our new letter Communications Earth & Environment addressing how land uses in deforested Amazonia impact climate & environment differently. Ignored consequences of land use harm remaining forests, biodiversity, & agribusiness. #Deforestation #LandUseRevolution Link: nature.com/articles/s4324…

How is the shape of trees changing with forest fragmentation? And how can these changes impact the forest biomass? Our study published in Nature Communications used #TLS to measure tree architecture in fragmented and intact forests in Central Amazonia. nature.com/articles/s4146…
