Overview

Karl-Heinz Häberle is affiliated with the Technical University of Munich in Germany. Their research primarily focuses on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences with a significant emphasis on nature and landscape conservation, global and planetary change, and atmospheric science.

The scientist's work covers a range of topics related to plant water relations and carbon dynamics, tree-ring climate responses, forest ecology and management, and ecology and vegetation dynamics studies. Additional research interests include seedling growth and survival studies, soil erosion and sediment transport, as well as remote sensing and LiDAR applications.

Recent publications illustrate their focus on drought effects on forest ecosystems. These include:

  • Growth and mortality of Norway spruce and European beech in monospecific and mixed-species stands under natural episodic and experimentally extended drought. Results of the KROOF throughfall exclusion experiment (2020, Trees)
  • Fine-Root Traits Reveal Contrasting Ecological Strategies in European Beech and Norway Spruce During Extreme Drought (2020, Frontiers in Plant Science)
  • The Kroof experiment: realization and efficacy of a recurrent drought experiment plus recovery in a beech/spruce forest (2021, Ecosphere)
  • Physiological recovery of tree water relations upon drought release-response of mature beech and spruce after five years of recurrent summer drought (2022, Tree Physiology)
  • Repeated summer drought changes the radial xylem sap flow profile in mature Norway spruce but not in European beech (2022, Agricultural and Forest Meteorology)
