About
Julian is a forest scientist and PostDoc at the Department of Remote Sensing at the University of Würzburg (JMU). He leads the working package ” forestry” within the EO4CAM project, focusing on remote-sensing-based assessment of forest condition, water balance, and climate resilience. His background includes several years of research at the Department of Physical Geography at the JMU and at the Professorship of Forest Nutrition and Water Resources at the Technical University of Munich, where he also completed his PhD. His work combines field-based hydrological and geophysical methods with Earth observation to understand drought impacts, soil moisture dynamics, and tree vitality. He also contributes to research on climate-adaptive tree species for urban environments. Throughout his scientific career, Julian has worked in close exchange with forest authorities, ensuring strong links between research and practice.
