Our activities with University of Bergen got covered by our University press. From the news release:
“A project from Julius Maximilians University of Würzburg (JMU) in collaboration with the University of Bergen (UiB) strengthens the partnership within the framework of the CHARM-EU University Alliance. Together, they are developing innovative approaches for the remote sensing research of alpine geo- and ecosystems.
Through CHARM, UiB received initial funding for a pilot project. The collaboration ideas, initiated during a visit to Norway in January, were further developed during a stay by Benjamin Robson and Jostein Bakke from the Faculty of Technology at UiB.”
