Our researchers work across a range of ecosystem modeling tools, often contributing to multiple modeling groups and projects. Their expertise bridges disciplines and connects different areas of research.

TellUs is a comprehensive Benchmarking framework developed to evaluate dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) and land surface models (LSMs) The purpose of TellUs is to provide flexible and comprehensive benchmarking, evaluating simulated output against data and or other simulation output. This multi-model framework offers two active versions, TellMeGlobal and TellMeEurope. TellMeGlobal focus on
We study these carbon cycle processes from plot to global scale, using satellite data for ecosystem-scale studies all the way from the Tropical forests to the High-Arctic tundra. Data is used for improving our understanding of how these ecosystems are functioning, and how the ecosystems are affected by climate and land use changes, and to improve our understanding of how well climate change mitiga

With a changing climate, there is an increasing risk of more frequent and severe disturbance events damaging our ecosystems. These disturbances can be events such as droughts, windstorms, insect attacks or forest fires and they can affect the carbon balance as well as the economy. Hence, it is important to develop methods to monitor disturbances. Defoliating insectsInsect attacks can be dynamic ev

Humans have a strong influence on landscapes and their environmental component, and many of the changes linked to human activities are visible from space. With earth observation we can derive information about human activities in the region we are studying. We can study changes in land use or land cover and link them to socio-economic and political processes in several ways. Urban expansion can be

Near-surface remote sensing, or proximal remote sensing, narrows the focus to observations made in close proximity to the land surface, such as on the top of a tripod, mast, or tower, or from a drone. When we mention remote sensing, our minds often jump to images captured by satellites. In reality, many measurements taken from a distance without direct contact with the target fall under the umbrel

Atmospheric processes leading to weather and climate on Earth. The science of climate and climate change involves study of the interaction between clouds, atmospheric radiation and aerosol particles. Researchers at the department are investigating how the environment controls cloud glaciation, precipitation, lightning and other cloud properties. Improved ways of treating clouds in global climate

16 September 2024 11:00 to 12:00 | Lecture/talk Docent lecture by Lina Eklund As interdisciplinary research is often promoted as the solution to the complex problems that our world is facing, more and more researchers reach out to colleagues on the other side of the disciplinary border or decide to move into disciplines other than their own. Interdisciplinary approaches can help us better understa

Atmospheric icing happens when supercooled liquid droplets inside the clouds come into contact with a solid object and freeze. The accumulated ice can bring down infrastructure such as transmission lines and cause aircraft to lose control. Accurate knowledge

As the world continues to warm and severe events become more common, understanding the fundamental drivers of tree mortality is becoming increasingly important. Here, I present a case study in tree mortality research using results from a long-term study in con

Climate and ecosystem models are essential tools for understanding and predicting climate change across various timescales. However, these models involve uncertainties from multiple sources, including model limitations and parameterizations, uncertainties in emission scenarios, and the inherent variability of cl
