These two papers provide rare insights into the economy of natural disturbances, a quite missing perspective: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #forests #resilience #RiskManagement #climatechange

Was a pleasure to present our joint work with @marcuslindner_ and Julia Haas from @FORESTEUROPE at @ECEM_2023 . Knowledge obtained through ecosystem models can be crucial for transforming forest risk management in EU. Are we prepared for this challenge? @RESONATE_forest

CZ is Europe`s disturbance epicenter due to this outbreak: doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.202… This fig shows disturbance extent and how rapidly it culminated. It is dangerous to read the recent decrease as having the worst over and returning to BAU practices @THlasny @RModlinger @poppswash

Thanks a lot to our colleagues from @ForEco_ETH for two days of discussions, fun, nature, and good food. We came up with exciting plans for collaboration in ecosystem modeling, disturbance ecology, AI, and many others. @Olalla @sarahilfiker @ginmarano @RESONATE_forest
We had a wonderful two days talking science with our colleagues from @GCRGculs Thank you for visiting us! @THlasny @DoborLaura @CzechBeetles @baldo_marco_ etc! More soon!
