I am a Postdoctorate Researcher at Leipzig University working on the FLEXPOOL project “Biodiversity effects on Plant-Atmosphere interactions analyzed with Remote Sensing (PARSe Biodiversity)” funded by iDiv. I use various machine learning techniques to assess plant diversity using the biophysical proxies derived from satellite data products. Further, I use that relationship in the prediction and monitoring of biodiversity.
