Past Projects

Helmholtz 'Forest Condition Monitor Germany' - 'Establishing a forest condition monitor using Sentinel-2 time-series to generate standardised products throughout Germany' (2021-2023)

Global Ground Heat Flux Estimated from Satellite Remote Sensing Observations
This project uses satellite remote sensing observations to derive a global, high resolution estimate of ground heat flux, in order to enhance our understanding of the surface energy balance and the land-atmosphere coupling. Furthermore, this estimate of ground heat flux may bridge the gap between paleoreconstructions of continental heat storage and current micrometeorological observations, expanding our knowledge about the mechanisms governing past and current climate change.
