After some weeks of boosting only, here comes an introduction. I came from the bird site and I am almost #newhere .

I am a professor of Terrestrial Ecohydrology at the @unijena , posting interdisciplinary about #EcoHydrology, #RootWaterUptake, #Canopies, #SoilWater and I am excited about optimality. I am human being too, and as such I have opinions about liveable cities, social justice, #climate or #biodiversity, and it will show in my feed.

@Anoxinon, thanks for having me!
