Check out our new paper (congrats Troy @photo_spec ) showing how well SIF can be used for evergreens: Mechanistic evidence for tracking the seasonality of photosynthesis with solar-induced fluorescence pnas.org/content/early/2019/…
Groundbreaking method from @OptPhotolab to observe from distance the full spectrum of fluorescence of mature trees in the forest. This brings us one step closer to remote sensing of terrestrial carbon sinks and vegetation health. @INAR_fin @helsinkiuni bit.ly/2vY4bD2

From green to brown in a month - as the #heatwave continues, the #Sentinel3 mission reveals how vegetation colour has changed in just one month. Details: esa.int/spaceinvideos/Videos…

Great, first ICOS stations labelled, including 2 stations from Finland: Hyytiälä (ATM) and Siikaneva (ECO)! Congrats to all the people who made this happen! xitter.cf/ICOS_RI/status/9314774…
The first 7 ICOS #GHG measurement stations just got labelled! Congratulations! ICOS now enters a new, operational era. #COP23 #ClimateChange Picture courtesy of Atmosphere Station Gartow, ICOS Germany.
