Alex Konings

Guest Alex Konings discusses the global cycles of water and carbon and how they shape ecosystems, droughts, and fires. They explore the significance of transpiration in water loss, its implications on weather and solar energy, and the changing dynamics of transpiration due to climate change. The podcast also covers the use of satellite data to measure water content in plants, the transportation process in ecohydrology, and the impact of satellite measurements on addressing challenges like droughts and wildfires.
