Fall is just around the corner! 🍂The scientists track fall color and leaf drop based on phenological observations and sap flow. The Sycamore tree tends to drop its leaves (where you see a decrease in sap flow) in late October/early November. #fall #data
Solar radiation and precipitation are key drivers of sap flow in trees. In this composite graph you can see the Spruce and Sycamore trees reacting to changes in solar radiation and precipitation during the 2020 growing season☀️☔️ #DataAnalytics #DataScience #nature
Scientists can measure tree trunk expansion using a dendrometer. This graph shows Sycamore dendrometer data over several years. It grows about an inch every year with small fluctuations throughout in response to weather conditions.📈🌳 #DataScience #DataAnalytics #nature #spring
It’s goal setting season! My goals for 2023 are to mitigate storm water, provide cleaner air, and store carbon! What are your 2023 goals? #iTREE @iTreeTools #nature #2023goals #2023NewYear #trees #Science #DataScience
Drones play a huge role in tree science and conservation. Are you curious about the drone program at The Morton Arboretum? Ask me questions! #drone #nature #conservation #technologies #STEM @MortonArboretum
Here is sap flow data from the Sycamore last month. We can see when there was a significant rain event and when the tree began dropping its leaves (early/mid November). The Sycamore is now dormant for the winter ❄️ #data #dataScientist #phenology #winter
November me vs December me 🍂➡️❄️ @AmericanForests #winter #fall #weather #phenology @usanpn @phenologists
Thank you to the Davey Resource Group - Utility Vegetation Management crew for stopping by last week! @DaveyTree 🌳 My leaves are just beginning to change color 🍂 #Tree #nature #fall #phenology
Happy October! 🍂 The Sycamore tree leaves are just beginning to change color, but the daily sap flow is still at a steady ~10cm/hr. #fall #trees #nature #phenology #data #dataScience #Weather #October #SpookySZN
Even on this chilly fall day my daily sap flow is steady at about 6cm/hr., and my leaves are still green. #fall #data #fallvibes #phenology
Good morning and happy first @MortonArboretum #PhenologyFriday of the fall cycle! Although we’re definitely still a ways away from peak fall plant-wise, now is when we amp up fall monitoring like leaf litter collection so we can really describe the temporal dynamics.
