" Assessing the Stability of Ecological Communities By Combining Data and Theory "

 La Kretz Center Postdoctoral Fellow Candidate Timo Metz is curious about how ecosystems respond to disturbances, and the strategies that can foster their recovery. Timo’s proposed research aims to investigate recovery times and trajectories of species composition in Californian forest ecosystems in the Sierra Nevada following disturbances, such as wildfires, insects or droughts. His work will support forest managers and conservation scientists in selecting forest management strategies that most effectively promote resistance and resilience of Californian forest ecosystems in the face of future disturbances.
