ECOSENSE - SFB 1537

Our interdisciplinary research project ECOSENSE investigates all relevant scales in a next generation ecosystem research assessment. Our vision is to detect and forecast critical changes in ecosystem functioning based on the understanding of hierarchical process interaction. To do so ECOSENSE develops, implements, and tests a new versatile, distributed, cost-effective, autonomous, intelligent sensor network based on novel microsensors tailored to the specific needs in remote and harsh forest environments.

The CRC ECOSENSE cordially invites you to join the international ECOSENSE conference from September, 29th to October, 1st 2025 in Freiburg, the “green” city in Southern Germany.
