I am a PhD student working on tree hydraulics. My research focusses on the behavior of trees under extreme drought conditions. Water is, besides temperature and light, one of the major environmental factors for the growth of trees. Within a changing environment, species face different stress gradients (drought, frost duration, flooding). To maintain the structure and function of a forest ecosystem, it is imperative to answer question of how plants respond to climate change, which species have sufficient genetic variation to adapt, which species can move and finally, which are destined to disappear. With my PhD project I try to address those questions, building both upon a manipulative-experimental approach using greenhouse experiments and an observational approach using data from study sites all across the federal state of Bavaria. To achieve this, I use various plant physiological measuring instruments (e.g. Porometer, Soil water potential sensor, Scholander Pressure Chamber) as well as the methods of dendroclimatology.
