Assistant professor

In my research I aim to evaluate environmental dynamics at different spatio-temporal scales, integrating a range of geospatial technologies. I mainly employ time series analysis of remotely sensed data, which are essential for characterization of change processes, like drastic and subtle disturbance, or natural succession including regeneration, growth, decline and mortality. I study phenological traits and variations through time, as well as long term trends of change to help assessing forest structure and ecosystemic services.
