Article written by the Communication department of Eurac Research. In this article we present our latest initiative on mapping fungal diversity across forests of South Tyrol, in association with the local mycological society and in collaboration with an EU-funded project (FunDive)

I was interviewed by the regional newscast RAI TGR Alto Adige about our special project on monitoring fungal diversity in South Tyrol. I briefly talked about the important role of fungi on forest ecosystems and how to monitor their diversity in forests.

A reportage with interview about my research activities for the regional broadcast RAI Alto Adige/Südtirol in the context of my Special Mention within the Junior Research Award Alto Adige 2023.

I was interviewed by Valentina Cibin from the regional radio streaming (RAI Alto Adige/Südtirol) about my Special Mention within the Junior Research Award Alto Adige 2023. We talked about my career but also about issues releted to forests and climate change.

Article written by Giovanni Blandino from the Communication department of Eurac Research. In this article we explain what are protection forests, why are so important in mountain regions and how their protective effect might be hampered by climate change.

Article written by Andrea di Giovanni from the Communication department of Eurac Research. In this post we explain how the technique of digital canopy photography can be used to monitor forests, capture their structure and relate to what happens beneath them.

I have been interviewed for a short article for the magazine Elle on forests and climate change / Sono stato intervistato per un breve articolo divulgativo nella rivista Elle su foreste e cambiamento climatico.

Forest landscapes can be managed as interconnected and functional complex networks via network analysis combined with modelling and strategic forest planning. But is the so-called functional network approach really an efficient way to optimize forest landscape management and to promote ecological resilience in the face of unexpected global change stresses?

I was interviewed by the network LifeGate about the recovery and resilience of the forests in South Tyrol hit by the windstorm Vaia. The interview was shot in Val D’Ega (Bolzano/Bozen) in the context of the LifeGate Ioniq Climate Tour

I was interviewed by the Italian Public TV (RAI Alto Adige) about our project REINFORCE. I briefly talked about the importance of evaluating future forest development using models calibrated with data from field observations, and how this can deliver useful recommendations for forest management.
