GRK 2300: Der Einfluss funktionaler Eigenschaften beigemischter Koniferen auf die Funktionsweise von Rotbuchenökosystemen

Michela Audisio

Postdoctoral researcher in Enrico since July 2024

Research

Using a multi-disciplinary approach, I aim at synthetizing the data gathered by the different sub-projects of the RTG “EnriCo”. Main research foci are the impact of climate change, in particular drought, on ecosystem functionality in pure and mixed forests, and the responses of biodiversity to forest composition at different levels.
