Left to right: Incandescent (back up chamber); full sun (direct light), cloud (20% of sun and dispersed), and canopy shade (20% of sun, dispersed and shifted green).
The chambers are finally ready to grow.

The lights are finally on in the Palaeolab! These custom build light fixtures, using Seoul Sunlike LEDs, will have filters added before going into the growth tents to mimic full sun, cloud and canopy shade light conditions for my plant growth experiments.
Thanks to the team up in Engineering for finishing the wiring and testing these for safety. |
ProjectClouds cause the greatest uncertainty in climate models, but we currently have no way of testing cloud model performance in a climate with higher CO2 than the historical records. Palaeontology gives us access to such a past, but currently, we don't have a method to reconstruct cloud in deep time. Archives
