Research in the University Forest

Research in the University Forest

December 19, 2024

During the run-up to Christmas, Julia Rieder and Julian Fäth from the EORC visited the university forest in Sailershausen to retrieve further data from a temperature monitoring system on disturbed forest areas. They also took the opportunity to meet the responsible forest director to discuss relevant research topics for Sailershausen as a pilot region in the context of EO4CAM and to exchange ideas for future research projects. The privilege of a university-own forest is an ideal basis for fostering knowledge transfer between science and practice.
