STRI Director Josh Tewksbury’s Remarks on Harassment
December 23, 2021
We are all working together to make tropical biology research safe for everyone by eliminating harassment.
Scientist
Martijn Slot
In my lab we try to understand how climate change affects tropical forests by studying how environmental factors influence the physiology and ecology of tropical trees and lianas. We are interested in identifying threshold temperatures for various aspects of plant performance, including carbon...
