About Lasse Tarvainen

Research I'm a plant ecophysiologist with research focus on the interactions between trees and their growth environment in boreal, tropical and urban settings. I am particularly interested in i) how trees in different ecosystems are affected by resource limitations and environmental stressors /e.g. climate change, air pollution and nutrient limitations), and ii) how different aboveground components of trees contribute to the total carbon cycling of forest ecosystems.

Collaborations I'm a PI within the strategic research areas - Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate (BECC, www.becc.lu.se) and MERGE (Modelling the Regional and Global Earth System, www.merge.lu.se)
