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!

Deadline extension for the microclimate conference: now up to March 1st to submit an abstract for a talk or poster! meb-network.com/meb-2026/
We are very happy to announce that the next Microclimate Ecology & Biogeography (MEB) conference will happen in Montpellier (FRANCE), 1 - 5 June 2026 ☀️

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:

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

I'm so happy to have my photo & microclimate paper featured on @JEcology's cover!
Replying to @JEcology
On the cover: Campylopus introflexus #moss found in Blois forest, France. Below #forest canopies, vascular #plants & #bryophytes often experience a less extreme, buffered microclimate temperature

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! 🌱🌳
My 4th PhD paper is out in @JEcology!! Thanks to coauthors, editors and reviewers! 💃✨ I wrote a small thread below with all of the main figures of the article (and a supplementary one) ⤵️
Understory #plants have contrasted affinities to the #forest microclimate!🌳Among 126 vascular plants & 64 #bryophytes, many species prefer buffered (less extreme) temps, but not all...
