2021 brings two doctoral students studying sun and shade in canopy

Two PhD students in the CanSEE group will start their studies joining our Academy Project studying how climate change, altering cloudiness and atmospheric features, affects the light use of forest and crop canopies.

Santa Neimane received a grant from the Wihuri Foundation to start her project on diffuse radiation use by plant canopies. (Atmospheric Science Doctoral Programme – ATM-DP)
