Many Congratulations to Julia Valentim Tavares for her Nature paper! Basin-wide variation in tree hydraulic safety margins predicts Amazon forest carbon balance. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Totally brilliant Hannah! Many congratulations! Very proud of your incredible achievements throughout this PhD, and navigating Covid difficulties. It's been a pleasure and privilege working with you.

Absolutely brilliant. Such a big achievement and so hugely deserved. Well done Loeske - the kids and I are very proud of you!

I’m advised that I shouldn’t say what I really think about this because one has to treat politicians who behave in this manner as difficult children and allow them to grandstand. But I will say that almost everyone I speak to has run out of patience. on.ft.com/3OiFxWG
