Methods of Forest Growth Research

Development of methods for the quantitative assessment, analysis and prediction of tree growth.

Current Projects

High Frequency Densitometry („HF-Densitometry“): Method for high resolution measurements of wood density and its variation.

Methods for high-resolution assessment of density variation along cross sections using dielectric dispersed slit probe.

Using tree rings as an archive for environmental conditions

Finished Projects
