We had to change our summer retreat plans due to bad weather but Munichs technical museum was a great alternative. They even have a stuffed spy pigeon on display!

What a defense! Very well done @lisa-mandl.bsky.social! A a special day for me, as Lisa was my first ever PhD student as a prof. I think I was equally nervous beforehand 😅
A big thanks to my supervisor @corneliussenf.bsky.social and @rupertseidl.bsky.social, @anastritih.bsky.social and Patrick Hostert for being on my commitee!

And to the amazing @eoem-tum.bsky.social crew: You made my defense day unforgettable. Thanks for everything – especially for the great hat! 🎓🎉

Were recent waves of large-scale forest dieback predictable? We say yes! A simple approach to describe temporal disturbance dynamics based on Taylor's Law. Now out in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/euG1A Thanks @tommaso-jucker.bsky.social and @rupertseidl.bsky.social for this great project!

Natural disturbances are often invoked as an argument against creating new forest reserves. But are reserves more affected by disturbances than managed forests? For C Europe the answer is no, in fact reserves have lower disturbance rate & severity than managed forests! doi.org/10.1111/1365...
