Overview

Marcus Lindner is affiliated with the European Forest Institute in Finland and has produced a substantial body of research within environmental science, with a focus on forest ecosystems and their management. Their work spans multiple interconnected fields and topics addressing forest dynamics, disturbances, and ecological responses to environmental changes.

Lindner's research concentrates primarily in the field of Environmental Science with significant contributions in the following subfields:

  • Global and Planetary Change
  • Ecology
  • Insect Science
  • Nature and Landscape Conservation
  • Atmospheric Science

Their main topics of study cover a broad range of forest-related areas:

  • Forest Management and Policy
  • Forest Insect Ecology and Management
  • Forest Ecology and Biodiversity Studies
  • Fire effects on ecosystems
  • Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics
  • Forest ecology and management
  • Tree-ring climate responses

Lindner has published several influential papers including the following notable examples:

  • "Bark Beetle Outbreaks in Europe: State of Knowledge and Ways Forward for Management" (2021, Current Forestry Reports)
  • "Significant increase in natural disturbance impacts on European forests since 1950" (2022, Global Change Biology)
  • "Reviewing the Use of Resilience Concepts in Forest Sciences" (2020, Current Forestry Reports)
  • "The 2018 European heatwave led to stem dehydration but not to consistent growth reductions in forests" (2022, Nature Communications)
  • "Concerns about reported harvests in European forests" (2021, Nature)

The publication venues where Lindner frequently contributes include:

  • Current Forestry Reports
  • Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)
  • Global Change Biology
  • Journal of Environmental Management
  • Agricultural and Forest Meteorology

The scientist collaborates regularly with other researchers, with frequent co-authors being:

  • Rupert Seidl
  • G.J. Nabuurs
