Bachelor and Master Thesis in Forestry

30.11.2024, Diplomarbeiten, Bachelor- und Masterarbeiten

We are looking for students motivated to study insects and effects of canopy and land use management in forests.

We collected insects from forests in a range of land use intensity, using window traps and collecting directly from the bark. We also have complementary data on pitfall traps from previous years. The thesis would be focus on discovering this insect diversity and better understanding the role of environmental factors, such as land use intensity, but also forest canopy and composition on forest diversity. There is the possibility to also use GIS tools to use additional data on the forests obtained by remote sensing. This is an unpaid thesis for students from TUM or LMU.
If you are interested, please send a motivation letter and CV to: Dr. Alejandra Parreno, alejandra.parreno@tum.de
