This project aims to develop an innovative system that uses real-time remote sensing to provide crucial information about dynamic processes in forests and their impact on biodiversity. Through continuous monitoring, we aim to enable informed decisions for climate change-responsive forest management and sustainable forest management. Learn more about our research efforts to fill existing knowledge gaps in timely information collection and delivery, providing a solid foundation for evidence-based decision making in society.
