Presentation
Theresa S. Ibáñez has a Ph.D. in Biology and was emplyed as a postdoctoral researcher at the Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies in Umeå (2022-2024). Theresa investigates how climate change impacts belowground carbon sequestration in boreal forest Scots pine plantations. Theresa also disentangles the effects of wildfires and salvage logging on forest regeneration and soil nutrient transformation rates in Swedish boreal forest.
