Happy to share our recent journey to the European Space Agency on the May13. We presented at the EO for Agriculture Under Pressure workshop in Frascati (IT). Our poster delved into how UAV-technology is revolutionizing monitoring for segetal flora conservation in arable land. 🌾 #ESA #AgTech

Yesterday we had the Faculty Day of Environmental Sciences 2024 at the Tharandt Campus. Caterina Barrasso had a great 1 minute one-slide presentation on her Scads.AI project and overall, we got to meet other environmental science fellows.

Meeting No. 2: This time our weekly LabMeeting within the own working group "Computational Landscape Ecology" 🌱 Topics: e.g. general orga, discussion on presentation contributions & new logo. You want to learn more about us? We also have our own Bluesky account: @cle-tud.bsky.social

Meeting Nr. 1 ✅ Konsultation zu einer Bachelorarbeit über Makroplastik an der Elbe. Jetzt erstmal Mittagessen mit den Kolleg*innen 🍝 …und das ist auch das Zeichen für euch: Pausen sind wichtig & richtig!

New day, new Field Trip: Revitalisation of a High Moor in the Ore Mountains, Saxony, with the Masters students. Input by Sachsenforst and a hydrological engineering office, not only showing possible work opportunities for geographers, but also how biodiverse peat bogs are!

2nd field trip was on urban trees. We analysed current a-/biotic stress factors for urban trees & discussed future scenarios while mapping trees @ the main campus & assessing their vitality & future prospects. Our highlight: Observing a chestnut & its pest, the Japanese chestnut gall wasp (see pic).

One out of two field trips for the master's students geography from yesterday 🔎

Insight into yesterday's excursion in the seminar Biogeography! In the forest botany garden in Tharandt, 26 students focussed on the topic of woody plants & their adaptation strategies to different environmental conditions. Today, they are travelling to Moritzburg to the game reserve.

Sneak peak into the seminar room 🪄 Besides research, we are also doing lots of teaching for bachelors, masters and becoming teachers at our chair - namely from Regional Geography over Biogeography to Changes in Geographical Spaces and a hands-on project seminar.

Thursday is colloquia time! 🎉 We use this slot to catch up on workshops or conferences we have attended, discuss papers, or use our colleagues as an audience for talks we have to give elsewhere. This week's topic: AI in Higher Education and how we can use it as a method in teaching.
