Today Ankur Desai, Univ. of Wisconsin currently on sabbatical leave at KIT/IMK-IFU in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, was visiting the Institute of Ecology and gave a presentation in our seminar series entitled “Predominately Pessimistic Plants Populate the Planet: Insights from eddy flux towers and model experiments on regional biogeochemical-climate feedbacks“.
A new paper resulting from the collaboration with the European Academy of Bolzano within the HydroAlp project was published online:
Della Chiesa S., Bertoldi G., Niedrist G., Obojes N., Endrizzi S., Albertson J.D.,Wohlfahrt G., Hörtnagl L., Tappeiner U. (2014) Modeling changes in grassland hydrological cycling along an elevational gradient in the Alps. Ecohydrology, 10.1002/eco.1471.
The Austrian GCOS (Global Climate Observing System) report, with contributions from the Biomet group (p. 62-63), was recently published online by ZAMG. The aim of GCOS is to build a long-term climate monitoring system for detecting and attributing climate change and assessing impacts of climate change and supporting adaption to climate change and climate variability.
