In Central Europe, forest management shapes post-disturbance recovery mostly through what’s left behind (disturbance legacies 🪵🌱) than impacting forest growth rates 📈
+ Set-aside forests regrow canopy height as fast as managed forests

New paper out!
We mapped forest recovery and its drivers in the Alps using multi-decadal fractional cover maps 🛰 and ecologically-informed recovery indicators 🌲.
New paper out! 🎉
We keep growing!
Are you excited about remote sensing and mountain forests? Then consider applying to this PhD position, supported by the TUM Center for Forest Management in the Alps! More details at: portal.mytum.de/jobs/wissens...
We had to change our summer retreat plans due to bad weather but Munichs technical museum was a great alternative. They even have a stuffed spy pigeon on display!
Thanks Jonas 🎉
Thanks Kirsten! Please make sure to publish your 'best-of-defense-quotes' at some point! 😄
A big thanks to my supervisor @corneliussenf.bsky.social and @rupertseidl.bsky.social, @anastritih.bsky.social and Patrick Hostert for being on my commitee!
And to the amazing @eoem-tum.bsky.social crew: You made my defense day unforgettable. Thanks for everything – especially for the great hat! 🎓🎉
Greetings from the #LPS in Vienna! Tomorrow's the last and the hottest (at least for us) day at the conference: a talk by @albavianasoto.bsky.social and posters by a lot of PhD students! Do not miss the chance to connect ;)
See you all at #LPS25
Looking for a PhD? We have a new position to fill, starting in autumn. We'll find out how disturbances affect microclimate and regeneration using remote sensing.
Apply below, open until 18.6.25 and feel free to contact me if you have questions!
