Presenter
Prof. Cornelius Senf

Satellites orbit the earth and reveal important information about forests - from the exact amount of stored biomass to the three-dimensional structure of trees. In his lecture, Prof. Cornelius Senf explores the question of what satellites reveal about the Earth's forests - and what this tells us about the global carbon cycle and climate change.

Attend the exciting lecture by Prof. Cornelius Senf, Chair of Earth Observation for Ecosystem Management, and take part in the discussion and exchange of views afterwards.

Admission starts at 6.30 pm and admission is free. Prior registration is not necessary.

Series of events TUM@Freising

Science - explained for everyone: Meet researchers from the TUM School of Life Sciences in person and find out what they are working on. A subsequent discussion after each lecture is expressly encouraged, because science thrives on the exchange of opinions.

The aim of the event is a lively encounter - citizens can get to know the people at "their" TUM better and learn more at the same time, while science receives valuable impulses for its research work through direct feedback from the public. The close cooperation between the city of Freising and the TUM Weihenstephan campus, which has existed for many years, is now becoming tangible in the city and region.
