Last week we joined the municipal workshop on Earth observation as part of the EO4Nature project led by LUP. From 2027, EO4Nature—funded by the ANK—will offer municipalities free, up-to-date satellite-based environmental insights. Great discussions on local needs! #NatürlicherKlimaschutz #ANK

📢Paper alert #2:
Modeling grassland parameters with hyperspectral satellite data.... doi.org/10.1016/j.ja...

Key takeaway: The selection of timing and spectral data is crucial for accurate biomass and species composition models.

📢Paper alert:
Methodological considerations for studying spectral-plant diversity relationships doi.org/10.1016/j.rs...

Key takeaway: Be cautious—illumination corrections may unintentionally alter diversity patterns, potentially biasing ecological interpretations.

Great news! 🌱 Last week Christine Wallis and Robert Jackisch received funding for KI-Recover, supported by the German Environment Ministry. The project uses AI to boost sustainable forestry — from climate-resilient tree selection to smarter reforestation. 🌳🤖

Last week, we took advantage of the last few nice days to conduct the final drone flight for our KI Recover project – Now we have to evaluate more than five weeks of fieldwork. #KI-Recover

We were delighted to host a research exchange with colleagues from @CzechGlobe 🇨🇿 in Berlin! 🌍

We discussed forestry-focused remote sensing, explored opportunities for future collaboration, and visited study sites like the #sensorfield in Brandenburg. 🌲📡

Thanks for the great visit!

🌱 New project: KI-Recover — a collaborative project using AI + remote sensing (drones, satellites, aerial data) and ecological expertise to improve reforestation management.
From monitoring forests to predicting risks, we use data to understand long-term forest recovery dynamics. (1/3)

Our sensor data will be compared with sap flow, dendrometer, and stomatal conductance measurements in Adlershof street trees. Together, these indicators show plant water status and stress — a key step toward improving urban vegetation resilience under climate change.

We're using
Meter Group 5TE – measures volumetric water content, temperature, and EC.
HydraGO by Stevens Water – portable sensor for instant soil measurements.

Detecting Plant Water Stress – SAVE Water Project

As part of the PRIMA-funded SAVE Water project, we are preparing to monitor soil moisture, soil temperature, and soil electrical conductivity (EC) to help detect water stress in urban trees.

We are using drones and sensors to investigate areas affected by forest dieback. We are mapping deadwood and collecting data on regeneration, mortality, species composition and age structures.

We are Caileigh, Robert and Kiran (from right to left) and we are currently in the Harz Mountains conducting field research. As part of the AI Recover project, we are investigating areas affected by forest dieback.
