The enchanted forests of Wayqecha 🌳🌿

Introducing the cloud curtain. What happens when you remove cloud from the cloud forest? A giant curtain has been installed at 3000m in the Peruvian Andes to remove fog from the forest. Over the next month, I'll find out how changes in fog formation affects tree carbon metabolism and storage.

I'm back in the forest for more field research. This time I've swapped the lowland rainforest for the mountains. Not a bad view to wake up to each morning.

How will seedling dynamics change with logging in tropical rainforests? Check out my blog about my recent fieldwork in Borneo as we try to answer this question.

Rainforests play a crucial role in the water cycle with enormous quantities of water recycled into the atmosphere via evapotranspiration. This phenomenon is most visible early in the morning when the temperature is cool enough for mist to form in the air before the tropical sun evaporates it into water vapour.
