Thanks to funding by the Austria-Israel Academic Network Innsbruck (AIANI), Dan Yakir from the Weizman Institute is visiting us this month as a guest professor.

Dan will be giving a lecture in the Institutes seminar series on Monday 19 June 16:30 (HS A, Sternwartestr. 15) talking about “Forest-climate interactions: Perspectives from the semi-arid region“.

thanks to Mario for the picture!

In between two meetings in France, Jay Arnone (DRI, Reno, NV, USA) was visiting us to work on the MGCF flux data set, which since our 2008 paper in GCB has grown to a length of 12 years and promises lots of new insights into inter-annual variability of desert carbon cycling.
