UNDERSTANDING WOODLANDS IN A CHANGING ENVIRONMENT
In our lab we seek to understand the causes and consequences of global environmental change in woody vegetation worldwide. Our mission is to provide the best available science to serve forests and woody species conservation and management in rapidly changing climate.
Our research approach
#PlantEcology #VegetationSurveys #FieldExperiments #BigData #EcologicalModels #Fire
We use empirical data collected in the field, experiments, big data analysis and statistical and individual based models to understand the interactive effects of climate change, management scenarios and disturbance regimes on woody plant distribution, structure and composition.
NEWS AND UPDATES
Setting up the experiments for the new SEEDFOR project
A week ago we finally started to set up the experiments on seed emergence and seedling growth in the field ! This is a new French National Science foundation project where we analyze forest transitions under climate change, where we suspect there may be a critical transition from Temperate Forests (Quercus robur, Q. petraea…
Master’s thesis grant (M2) on Biodiversity Refugia Modeling under Climate Change.
We are offering a M2 grant to work on biodiversity refugia modeling ! Come work with us.
Two new members in the Lab!
We have two new members coming in October ! We have two new PhD students starting soon to work on forest and climate change. More details on them soon, but…
