#ICPP2023 Thank you Andrea Vannini & Shannon Lynch, Ph.D. for chairing this interesting session on insect-fungi interactions in #forest #ecosystems #ForestHealth

viken.skog.no/aktuelt/artikl… ongoing research about spruce plants to prevent the damage of bark beetles and other pests! 🌲 #tree #health

What do they eat down there? 🇱🇻×🇱🇹 Two Baltic brothers with a combined population of 5 million, both heading to the #FIBAWC Quarter-Finals!

📢 Big announcement! Content from the COST Super Summer School on forest ecosystems, featuring 3DForEcoTech, PROCLIAS - COST Action 19139, and @Cost_BottomsUp, is coming your way! Follow us for exciting updates, insights, and more. Let's explore the world of forests together!

The #supersummerschool was a unique blend of cutting edge sensors, software, applied research on biodiversity, modeling and social exchange! It gives the opportunity to connect with research experts, fellow students, gain new skills, and change science with your new connections!

“To solve problems you need to bring people together” as Martin Mokros 🌳 📷 🇸🇰 🇬🇧, one of the organizers of our #supersummerschool said. So we did🌍: 80 Scientists from 25 countries spent a week in Ljubiljana, Slovenia to exchange knowledge and broaden their horizons - and this is the map!

Monitoring & understanding forest ecosystems through close-range remote sensing is the focus of 3DForEcoTech COST Action. Scientists & stakeholders collaborate to standardize protocols & algorithms for remote sensing-based forest surveys. #3DforEcoTech #ForestMonitoring

Let’s talk about what we learned! 3DForEcoTech focuses on how to monitor and understand forests with terrestrial based technologies - and in the summer school we taught students how to process the data from the field! Aren’t these point clouds beautiful? 🌳😇 #pointcloud #forest

When diving into working with other disciplines, we have to adapt our mindset! It requires patience, time and energy not to be discouraged by not understanding at first! But don’t worry, if you stick to it, you’ll soon be able to make new connections and improve your research!

We asked our experts and: communication is key! If you don’t adapt your language to your audience when presenting your research, you can’t count on being understood. On the other side the audience has to be curious! And how to achieve that? Have fun! #science #ecology #PhD

The essence of research: Staying curious while failing. We learn the most during the process of failure! So be patient with yourself and jump into the trial-error process to learn faster! Let’s share our experience - how do you find your way out of frustrating moments in science?

Ukrainians fighting on the front lines of freedom should not have had to wait so long for this U.S. aid. Today, 311 members of the House defied Trump & the GOP Putin caucus. They voted to stand for freedom against the evil of Putin & his allies in Iran and around the world.
