The Ecosystem modelling group work with tools adressing dynamic global vegetation modelling, forest demography and vegetation-climate interactions. The ecosystem modelling group encompasses about 35 scientists investigating questions around the interactions between the terrestrial biosphere, climate and society. Our work addresses processes and outcomes on scales from tens of meters to the globe a

Observational data and modellingBio-geophysics is concerned with how the soil, plants and atmosphere interact with each other through the transport and exchange of energy and various compounds. Researchers are using both bservational data and modelling to study the interaction between nature and climate, today and in the future.We study terrestrial biosphere effects on the composition and function

Phenology is the responses of biological organisms to seasonal variations in environmental factors like light, temperature and precipitation. Changing growing seasons are important indicators of changes in the climate system. Even short-term variations might indicate disturbances that may seriously affect production and health of the vegetation. Monitoring phenology with satellites is a way of imp

Model calibration and greenhouse gas emissions estimationsWe study the interactions between the atmosphere and the earth’s surface focussing on exchanges of carbon, water, and energy at the vegetated land surface. This also includes human interactions and perturbations to the Earth system such as the burning of fossil fuel. We do this by a methodology commonly referred to as model-data fusion.Our

A project on the states and changes in Swedish primary forests Primary forests are forests with minimal direct human impact. Nowadays these forests are rare relics in the landscape that tell a valuable tale of how our ecosystems would have looked in the absence of land use. This page describes our work on primary forests over time, activities and publications. Mapping primary forests in Sweden In
