Hannes Keck

Hannes is a PhD student studying greenhouse gas fluxes from agricultural ecosystems. Hannes' research focuses on developing and testing a relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) system to measure continuous carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and water vapour fluxes at field scale. The combination of micrometeorological methods, manual chamber measurements as well as footprint analysis will help us understand the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of greenhouse gas fluxes from drained peatlands and how driving variables influence these patterns.

Background
