Alternative Subtitle: How Not To Be Reviewer #2
A LI-COR scientist is standing next to an agave that is taller than she is
So, what chamber should we use to measure this plant? 🤔

Our work with NASA Blueflux and others, led by Cheryl Doughty, upscaling CO2 and CH4 fluxes in the Everglades, is published! Check out the paper and see how management and climate are impacting C fluxes across South Florida!

Awesome morning tracking photosynthesis in a Welwitschia population.
(It was cold in the morning, for like 30 minutes, before the sun made it a furnace.)
Look, we know scientists are very very good at organizing their entire collection of papers (digital or hard copy) as a procrastinatory reflex, but you really do need to just get your abstract in now.

violets are blue

Got enough methane for the ground to be *on fire*? We can measure that! (The methane, not the fire. Please don't expose our instruments to open flame). Photo courtesy of Dr. Ian Smillie, who was visiting researchers in Grenoble last week.
Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! This day is celebrated annually to promote the full and equal access and participation of women in science and technology 👩🏫 Take a moment to reflect: what opportunities could you take to increase gender equality in your workplace or community?

Using controlled genetic approaches, RIPE researchers altered soybean leaf shape and found that narrower leaves can improve how efficiently plants use available light.
This work was led by RIPE researchers Bishal Tamang and Lisa Ainsworth.

From the fjords to the only "ocean front property in Arizona", LI-COR instruments are working to help researchers understand our world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSjn... (sorry about the George Strait earworm)
Researchers at the UMCES took the LI-7810 and a DIC system out into the fjords and made a video about it. Check it out here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOIZ...

Dans le cadre du projet CARBONIQUE et en collaboration avec le EcoFlux Lab de la professeure Sara Knox à l'université McGill, une tour à covariance des turbulences a été installé dans un marais aménagé par Canards Illimités.
Voici la vidéo de l'installation d'avril 2025 ☀️🚜🦆🌱 youtu.be/z37eCc8C8bw
This is another flux tower we installed this spring/summer for the @carbonique.bsky.social project. This time the tower was installed on a floating platform in a restored marsh near Baie-du-Febvre.
Thank you to my colleague Léonie @cpaleolab.bsky.social for putting together this video 💚
