🧠 New publication from our member Thomas Gaiser on the water logging impact to crop production is out on Nature Food. It has been found that there are critical deficiences on accurately simulating soil processes that could be minimized using advanced crop modelling.

DETECT Seminar - CRC 1502 DETECT

The CRC 1502 DETECT (SFB 1502) investigates the hypothesis that human-induced land use change and intensified water management also influence regional climate.

Last year, my master's student and I had the pleasure of taking peat samples in the Flow Country, examining the effect of land use changes and wildfires on carbon stability under current and future climate scenarios. 🌱

🌼 In December 2024, we visited the Forsinard Flows Nature Reserve in Scotland. In this study, we investigate the impact of a wildfire in 2019 on soil processes and carbon changes of burnt and unburnt pairs of different sites – and what it means for future climate scenarios.
