Tree generation replacement in a European natural forest– unravelling the role of canopy gaps using a spatially explicit approach (ForestRege)

Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2018,

The replacement of successive tree generations is a fundamental process which shapes the structure and dynamics of forest ecosystems and essential ecosystem services. Conditioning this process are the complex relationships between the spatial and temporal patterns of tree death (i.e. gap formation) and the recruitment and growth of young individuals. In this project, Magdalena Żywiec (hereinafter: ...

From atom-to-Device Explicit simulation Environment for Photonics and Electronics Nanostructures (DEEPEN)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"DEEPEN will develop an integrated open source multiscale simulation environment, targeted at problems common to future nanoscale electronic and photonic devices. New device simulators require an atomic-scale description of selected critical regions of a transistor or LED to capture details otherwise inaccessible. They must also resolve the considerable uncertainty in many critical parameters requ ...
