Looking back to the start of the TRACE #Decomposition Experiment this summer🤩 We’re studying how #warmer temperatures influence decomposition rates of Guarea guidonia, Cecropia schreberiana, and wooden popsicle sticks in #ElYunque National Forest

TRACE techs, past intern, and manager presented at #ESA2025 🔥
We covered topics such as #soil CO2 fluxes from an incubation experiment, #fineroot dynamics in a #drought experiment, mat forming #fungi under warming, and #engagement of #PuertoRican students through our #ForestWarming project.
Final TRACE talk at #ESA2025 Join the conversation about fostering engagement of Puerto Rican students in ecological research!

Measuring height, moisture, and mass of the standing litter layer inside the #TRACE plots. Also subsampling for nutrients! Looking forward to comparing between warmed and control plots.
Part 1 of our 2025-2026 #decomposition experiment.

First day in the #field for #interns Daliz and Sofía🥾
They learned how to perform project inspection, returned unused #soil to the field, and helped remove old scientific equipment💪

Oct 2024: TRACE tech Deyaneira Ortiz visited schools in the West coast of #PuertoRico & talked about #oceanacidification, #soil & the #ForestWarming project!👩🏽🏫
Through this effort by Luquillo #LTER Data Jam, students asked questions & were excited to learn throughout!
