About
Julia Rieder is a scientist at the Department of Remote Sensing at the University of Würzburg (JMU). She studied applied physical geography in Würzburg, with a focus on environmental analysis and geospatial methods. Her research focuses on identifying abiotic and biotic drivers of drought responses in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) by bringing together field observations and LiDAR-derived structural information. She integrates airborne and mobile laser scanning with in-situ measurements of soil properties and tree vitality, using LiDAR-derived microtopography, canopy gap dynamics, and tree-level analyses to investigate the drivers of variability in drought responses of beech trees. Her work emphasizes programming and quantitative approaches to link forest structure and environmental conditions with ecological processes.

Our newest EAGLE generation featured on 40 years of DLR Earth Observation Centre (EOC) article
We are thrilled to see our youngest EAGLE generation being mentioned on the 40 years anniversary of DLR-EOC news article. Great to see the EAGLE group on the DLR webpage (with some students missing though) fitting perfectly into the interesting and dynamic evolution...
Our EAGLE 2020 generation
Our new EAGLE Earth Observation students arrived and we took a group picture while keeping the required distance due to the current situation. Unfortunately not all students could arrive on time for the group picture and hence cannot be seen on the image below. We are...
New EAGLE stickers arrived
Just in time for the welcome of the new EAGLEs we received our new EAGLE stickers. They are a first trial of irregular shaped stickers and more will come. The fit nicely with our "old" PixelschubserIn sticker (pixel pusher) and more formal "Remote Sensing Scientist"....
