Amidst the vibrant exchange of ideas that took place during Ines Standfuss’s recent PhD defence, our collaborative spirit continues to thrive, paving the way for innovative research projects. As the conversation unfolded between Prof Martin Wikelski and Prof Hannes Taubenboeck, we uncovered exciting avenues to explore the interplay between urbanisation and ecological dynamics, leveraging insights from Earth Observation to enhance our understanding of climate change impacts on biodiversity. This synergy not only highlights our commitment to advancing scientific knowledge but also underscores the potential for impactful discoveries that may emerge from our joint initiatives. As we look ahead, we remain eager to foster these partnerships, drawing inspiration from Ines’s exemplary research to ignite further exploration into the intricate patterns of animal movement and environmental change.
