Introduction
I am a dendroecologist curious about tree and shrub growth in relation to climate change and disturbances. I want to gain a better understanding about the factors that drive tree growth and how longliving organism such as trees are responding to changes.
Furthermore I am involved in faunistic mapping with a focus on analysing ultrasonic bat calls. My goal is to understand species composition and environmental requirements in order to minimize potential conflicts with human infrastructure.

Tree growth is a multifaceted process influenced by various factors at different spatial and temporal scales, including intrinsic tree traits and environmental conditions. Climate factors have a significant impact on tree growth dynamics, while geological controls can also play a crucial role. However, our understanding of the interplay between the...

Climate warming advances the onset of tree growth in spring, but above‐ and belowground phenology are not always synchronized. These differences in growth responses may result from differences in root and bud dormancy dynamics, but root dormancy is largely unexplored.
We measured dormancy in roots and leaf buds of Fagus sylvatica and Populus nigra...
