New paper: The handbook for standardized field and laboratory measurements in terrestrial climate change experiments and observational studies (ClimEx)

Last week the new handbook of methods for climate change experiments came out. It’s a huge international effort led by Aud Halbritter and others to develop best-practice protocols for standardizing how scientists make measurements in terrestrial ecosystems. Sean Michaletz and I wrote the leaf temperature and leaf thermal trait sections. You can read the paper at Methods in Ecology and Evolution, and check out all the protocols in the Supporting Information – about 60 MB of information in all. It’s all open access. I hope this will be a great resource for the field going forward!
