Emerging Insights in Fungal Ecology: Patterns, Processes, and Climate Effects

Öffentlicher Vortrag im Habilitationsverfahren

Fungal ecology has experienced substantial progress over the past decade, driven largely by the availability of large-scale spatial datasets. These datasets have revealed significant correlations between fungal diversity patterns and environmental factors, particularly climate. Despite these advancements, a comprehensive understanding of the assembly processes shaping fungal communities and the impacts of climate warming over time remains elusive. In this presentation, I will present an overview of my current research aimed at addressing these critical questions. I will highlight how emerging data and innovative analytical approaches are beginning to shed light on the complex interplay between fungal diversity patterns and their underlying ecological mechanisms.
