I'm really proud of this project, the culmination of 12 yrs of research on our plant BBQ. Our plant flammability data are being used in this new @FireEmergencyNZ website to guide decisions about which species to plant around your property. checkitsalright.nz/reduce-your-ri…

🔥Fuel architectural traits such as branching pattern influence shoot flammability, but leaf traits such as LDMC & leaf thickness play a stronger role in explaining interspecific flammability variation @azhar_alam06 @TimCurran8 @buckleyhannah @DylanSchwilk besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…
