Process-oriented models of #leaf #senescence are biased towards the mean: impacts on model performance and future #projections . Read more about it in this new paper! doi.org/10.1111/gcb.17…

Late-season climate effects on the timing of #autumn #leafsenescence are biased due to disregarded backward #causation . Have a look at this interesting commentary to Zohner et al. (2023) by Christof Bigler in Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Why are certain beech trees more susceptible to #drought -induced crown vitality loss than others and is recovery possible? Together with scientists from WSL Umweltforschung we investigated the drought response of 470 #beech trees in northern #Switzerland sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#ClimateChange impacts on #ItalianAlps protection #forests vary from improved #protection in #subalpine areas to threats in lower montane regions. Proactive management is needed to maintain protective effects. Find more here: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… Marco Mina #newPaper

The second paper of my PhD has finally been published in Agricultural and Forest Meteorology! The focus in this part was on improving the predictability of fire danger assessments. bit.ly/agrformet

A very interesting day listening, discussing and sharing our science SwissForestLab

I'm so thrilled! Two grants were accepted, one at WSL(WSL Umweltforschung Yann Vitasse) and another from SNSF (@snsf_ch) in collaboration with Prof.A.Rigling Forest Ecology ETH. Here's to many years of research to improve resilience of European forests to climate change! #ClimateChange #Forest

Congratulations Isabella Ostovary !

How do Europe's forests self-regenerate?🌲🌿 Yannek Käber and colleagues from Forest Ecology ETH find that competition is key! Small trees wait for disturbances to get a chance and mixed forest are better at regenerating through mixed strategies. #usysscience

Congratulations Christof!

Here's a great thread with interesting insights about tree regeneration in #unmanaged forests 🌳

Sheltered or suppressed?
Natural tree regeneration along climatic gradients is modulated by competition and species' life history strategies
In a new study the EuFoRIa Network (euforia-project.org) explored these patterns in European unmanaged forests besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/13…

Check out my preliminary results about the influence of environmental parameters on leaf #phenology of #trees at my #gfoe23 poster this afternoon 😎
