Researcher @TUM & Berchtesgaden modelling mountain landscapes, forests and social-ecological systems 🏔️🌲🌳🛰️🐻⛷️🧗🍉

Environmental science 65%
Geography 16%

Both positions have a central role in Future Forests, so it will mean a lot of opportunities for interesting collaborations and a chance to shape forest modelling research in the coming years. Please share widely, and feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
Come work with us! We are looking to fill a PhD (mountain forest management) and PostDoc position (forest adaptive capacity, w/ @juditlecinadiaz.bsky.social). We'd be happy to have you as part of our dynamic team!

Nice work from @kirstenkrueger.bsky.social showing that contrary to some beliefs, setting forests aside (i.e. not managing them) does not increase disturbances - unmanaged forests are actually less disturbed 🌲
Setting forests aside doesn’t stir up more trouble—in fact, it calms the chaos 🌳
Happy to see my first PhD chapter out! 📝
Setting aside forests for biodiversity conservation does NOT amplify disturbances in temperate forests of Central Europe.

I'm happy to share that I will soon be starting a new position as junior professor of Modelling of Social-Ecological Systems at the @uni-freiburg.de
I'm excited to start some new research on the interactions between forests and people, and will be hiring two PhD students...

Thanks for sharing! And for spotting the typo, the deadline is Feb 21st, 2025 of course :)

If you have any questions about the position, please don't hesitate to reach out!

In addition, you'll get to work with the great research team at the park and @edfm-tum.bsky.social with @rupertseidl.bsky.social - they not only do exciting research, but are also fun to hang out with 🧗‍♂️ ⛷️

I highly recommend it to anyone interested in research on interactions between people and nature, especially if you like mountains! Berchtesgaden is not only a beautiful place, but also a place with interesting (and complex) social-ecological dynamics.

Great talk from the brilliant @kirstenkrueger.bsky.social on why planting trees is not the easy solution to climate change - but there's still some hope for forests, too :)
Why forests are part of the solution but not THE solution in the climate crisis🌳🌏

Happy that I had to opportunity to speak at the #38c3 about my number 1 passion: Trees!
