Head North: Climate Change and Tree Migration
by Daniel Brouse June 25, 2024 Trees “move” through a process of gradual migration, which occurs over generations through the dispersal of seeds. This migration is driven by environmental changes, such as climate change, and can be observed in the expansion of greenery into new areas, such as the tundra, and the invasion of southern […]

Chaos Theory: Evolving Winter Atmospheric Teleconnection Patterns
By Daniel Brouse Teleconnections: Teleconnections refer to climate anomalies and patterns that occur over large distances and are often linked to each other. These connections can manifest as recurring climate patterns, such as El Nino and La Nina events, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), and the Southern Oscillation (SO). Teleconnections can influence weather and climate […]
