Skills
My research focus is on the climate change mitigation and adaptation potential of managed ecosystems, from the tree to the end of life of the wood products. In particular, I am interested in quantifying the effect that different management practices have on the exchange of carbon, water and energy between the ecosystem and the atmosphere. For this, I combine multiple data sources such as forest inventory data, ecophysiological trait and flux measurements and forest sector statistics, with models ranging from empirical forest growth to coupled process-based models of the land surface.
