Workshop
Remote Sensing and Forest Monitoring
In this workshop examples from different perspectives will be presented on issues related to monitoring and assessing forest dynamics using time series analysis, both using detailed tree measurements as well as satellite data. Focus will be on effects due to climate change.
The workshop precedes the PhD thesis defense of Mathieu Decuyper. You are also invited to attend the public defense of his thesis in the Aula.
