We have received the wonderful pre-Xmas news that our project “Longterm carbon and water balance of a coniferous forest” submitted to the Austrian National Science Fund (FWF) will be funded for the coming four years!
The funding will allow us to shift gears with respect to long-term measurements at the FAIR site, which we initiated back in 2021, and at the same time tackle some of the current problems in forest-atmosphere carbon and water exchange.

PhD student Lorenz Hänchen will receive a grant from the Tyrolean Young Scientist 2023 program in order to work on making the photochemical reflectance index (PRI) a more reliable proxy for non-photochemical quenching.
Congratulations to Lorenz for this achievement!
