Start of the @dfg.de-funded project T-EDGE! In the next three years, we will study forest regeneration 🌱 and biophysical conditions 🌡️ at transient forest edges! See more information here: www.easi.uni-bayreuth.de/en/research/...

I'm on my way to #LPS25 in Vienna and excited for a full week of EO science 🚀 You're not sure which sessions to start with? Join my talk in the Global Carbon Budgets session. I'll talk about how much biomass was lost due to tree cover loss across Europe's forests from 1985-2024. See you in Vienna!

📣Attending @esa.int's #LPS25 next week? Make sure to catch the 𝐂.𝟎𝟓.𝟎𝟒 session (𝐓𝐮𝐞 𝟐𝟒𝐭𝐡 | 𝟏𝟔:𝟏𝟓-𝟏𝟕:𝟒𝟓 | 𝐇𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐋𝟏/𝐋𝟐), during which I will talk about 🌍 global 🛰️ #Landsat and #Sentinel-2 data availability and how it shapes feasibility of long-term analyses. See you in Vienna!

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!

📣In our new paper we analyzed the impact of #Landsat and #Sentinel-2 🛰️ #satellite data density and SMA endmembers on trends in #grasslands ground cover: - for monthly composites data density is irrelevant - correct endmember definitions are critical‼️ Check out the full paper tinyurl.com/wha6pzax

Firefighting planes are dumping ocean water on the Los Angeles fires − why using saltwater is typically a last resort

In emergencies, dumping ocean water on fires may be the best option. But seawater can have long-term effects on equipment and ecosystems, as a novel coastal experiment shows.

Happy to share our new paper on soil-specific unmixing of croplands in Germany led by Felix Lobert. We adapted @katjakowalski.bsky.social’s approach using #Landsat and #Sentinel-2 🛰️ to account for soil variability using a soil reflectance composite developed at @thuenen.de EO: tinyurl.com/5n92ae5z

American beech showing marcescence - retention of senesced leaves through the winter We see marcescence in many species and plant families, but evolutionary causes are not well understood. Hypotheses include protection from browsing mammals and soil fertilization when leaves drop in the spring
