Professor for Earth observation, Technical University of Munich.
Continental-scale study looking into four species (roe deer, red deer, moose, European bison)- using GPS tracking data from >3000 individuals and a 35-year disturbance history @corneliussenf.bsky.social - main finding: disturbances (both natural and anthropogenic) improve for decades 👇
The future of Europe’s forest disturbance regimes– a thread. Tl, dr: Disturbances from wildfire, bark beetles & wind will continue to increase in the coming decades. Under unabated climate change disturbances could more than double by 2100. New paper out in @science.org doi.org/10.1126/scie...
Prof. Cornelius Senf @corneliussenf.bsky.social has been appointed to the Landsat Science Team! ✨🛰️🌲 The members of the team are among the world's leading Earth Observation researchers and contribute directly to the strategic development of the Landsat program. More: shorturl.at/NMLAy
New paper by @albavianasoto.bsky.social and @corneliussenf.bsky.social on forest reburns in southern Europe, published in Glob. Ecol. and Biogeography🌲🔥 Highlight: 30.1% of burned forest area experiencing multiple fire events since 1985. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
New paper out! We mapped forest recovery and its drivers in the Alps using multi-decadal fractional cover maps 🛰 and ecologically-informed recovery indicators 🌲.
Cornelius Senf@corneliussenf.bsky.social · 7mo agoNew paper - and final PhD chapter of @lisa-mandl.bsky.social - published in Agricultural and Forest Meteorology. Using Landsat recovery and meteorological data, we show that thermal limitations constrain post-disturbance recovery success across forests of the European Alps: doi.org/10.1016/j.ag...

Come work with us! We are hiring a PhD to work on human-bear coexistence from a social-ecological systems perspective. uni-freiburg.de/en/job/00004... As part of an international project, you'll use qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate coexistence with bears in Slovenia 🚵🐻
After several years of hard work two important papers from Berchtesgaden NP are finally out: 1) effects of microclimate on biodiversity change with macroclimate along elevation, but taxon specific - led by @lisageres.bsky.social doi: 10.1002/ecog.07984 with @rupertseidl.bsky.social and many more
New paper by Wout Cherlet of @qforestlab.bsky.social with very valuable insights into tree instance segmentation including one of our intensive measurement sites in #Berchtesgaden National Park 🌳✂️🌲 Co-authored by @hanzlan.bsky.social and @corneliussenf.bsky.social. doi.org/10.1016/j.is...

New paper in Nature Climate Change! What are the costs of increasing disturbances? Find out in this amazing contribution by @johannesmohr.bsky.social! Great to see this out and congrats Johannes on such a nice first PhD paper! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Rising cost of disturbances for forestry in Europe under climate change - Nature Climate Change
Climate change will raise the severity and frequency of forest disturbance, damaging the economic value of timber. Researchers show Europe’s timber-based forestry could lose up to €247 billion, yet in...

Want to do a PhD in remote sensing? Interested in mountain forest ecosystems? Then apply for a PhD position in our lab! You will be part of the newly founded Centre for Forest Management in the Alps, working on scaling tree productivity from tree to landscape scale. Deadline 21st September.
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!
We warmly congratulate @lisa-mandl.bsky.social on her successful PhD defence! In accordance with tradition, Lisa is wearing a special hand-made hat 🎓, illustrating her research and PhD journey, and signifying her transformation into Dr. Mandl😉
What a defense! Very well done @lisa-mandl.bsky.social! A a special day for me, as Lisa was my first ever PhD student as a prof. I think I was equally nervous beforehand 😅
Lisa Mandl@lisa-mandl.bsky.social · last yr.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! 🎓🎉
Were recent waves of large-scale forest dieback predictable? We say yes! A simple approach to describe temporal disturbance dynamics based on Taylor's Law. Now out in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/euG1A Thanks @tommaso-jucker.bsky.social and @rupertseidl.bsky.social for this great project!

Natural disturbances are often invoked as an argument against creating new forest reserves. But are reserves more affected by disturbances than managed forests? For C Europe the answer is no, in fact reserves have lower disturbance rate & severity than managed forests! doi.org/10.1111/1365...
