Projects

Funded through a Philip Leverhulme Prize, this project will map how canopy 3D structural complexity recovers following disurbance across the world’s tropical forests.

Funded by the Leverhulme Trust, this project makes use of the global airborne LiDAR database we have compiled to explore how and why forest edge effects vary across the world’s forests.

Funded through an ERC Starting Grant, this project brings together data from manipulative experiments, tree rings, sensor networks and remote sensing to shed new light on how Europe’s forests are responding to increasingly frequent and severe summer heatwaves.

Funded by NERC, this project takes advtange of a unique landscape-scale restoration experiment underway in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, to understand how we can speed up the recovery of degraded tropical forests.

Funded by the Leverhulme Trust, this project leverages recent advances in theoretical ecology, remote sensing and computer modelling to shed new light on the processes that shape the 3D structure of the world’s forests.

Funded through a NERC Independent Research Fellowship, this project aims to understand how land-use intensification impacts the resilience of Borneo’s tropical forests to drought.

This project is an ongoing international collaboration among over 100 scientists to bring together the first global tree crown allometry database. TALLO contains detailed measurements from over half a million trees belonging to more than 5000 tree species.
