Investigating forest microclimate & mycorrhiza PhD at @UMR_EDYSAN, now postdoc at Chrono-environnement 🌳 Science blog (FR): https://xitter.cf/t.co/axYsCFjYQb

Besançon, France
Joined December 2019
Just a few days ago, I defended and obtained my PhD in ecology: 🌳 "Modelling forest microclimate and its consequences on understory flora under climate change" 🌱This thread outlines the main results of my 4 chapters! Photo by @f_spicher - PhD funded by project @ForMicroclimate

The word is out officially, now: SoilTemp has finished its transformation into 'The MEB-network' - a fully-fledged research network that goes far beyond just being a database. Let me show you all the ways you can get involved here: the3dlab.org/2025/05/31/soil…

Invitée par la fondation Evertéa, j'ai adoré participer à Pint of Science 🍺 au bar Cause Toujours (Valence) : "Les super-pouvoirs de la forêt, passés aux rayons laser !" #pint25 @pintofscienceFR Binôme avec Aurore Toulou, sur les microclimats & espaces verts urbains 🌳

The method! a) We measured hourly micro & macroclimate temperatures (b) We derived the slope of the linear relationship between these two T (c) We used species presence/absence to fit species response curves to microclimate buffering (log_slope>0) vs amplification (log_slope > 0)

And finally, the percentage of forest core specialists does increase with forest microclimate buffering. To conserve most of those understory species under CC, keeping a high and dense canopy seems like our best option.. But many other forest (edge) specialists would be excluded!

In this article, we discuss how buffering would relate to light and humidity in addition to temperature regimes, the implications for forest management... doi.org/10.1111/1365-2745.14… It's open access (code too), please read and share with your plant or forest enthusiast friends! 🌱🌳
