Figure 1.1.2. Former CMI postdoctoral fellow Caroline Farrior was presented with the 2016 CMI Best Paper Award by Gardiner Hill, Director of Carbon Solutions, during a ceremony this past February. Farrior, who worked in Stephen Pacala’s lab, was selected for her paper “Dominance of the suppressed: Power-law size structure in tropical forests” in recognition of the important finding that commonalities among tropical forests in their structure are due to simple and biologically intuitive mechanisms. The paper was published in the journal Science in early 2016.
