New TERENO Advisory Board members

 

Tetzlaff Dorthe IGB 2019 4449 Isabelle Braud 2nd TERENO OZCAR Conference 2023
Prof. Dörthe Tetzlaff Dr. Isabelle Braud

 

Two experts from the field of hydrology have joined the TERENO Advisory Board: Prof. Dörthe Tetzlaff from Germany and Dr. Isabelle Braud from France. The Advisory Board consists of independent scientists and supports the work and further development of TERENO.

 

Dr. Dörthe Tetzlaff is Professor of Ecohydrology at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and Head of the Department of Ecohydrology and Biogeochemistry at the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB). She researches the ecohydrological effects of catchment areas. This involves, for example, how and for how long water is stored and released in landscapes.

 

Dr. Isabelle Braud is co-leader of OZCAR, TERENO's French partner organization, which operates long-term observatories for environmental monitoring in France and overseas. Isabelle Braud works in the RiverLy research and development unit, which focuses on the functioning of hydrosystems and is part of the French Institut national de recherche pour l'agriculture, l'alimentation et l'environnement (INRAE). Isabelle Braud's research focuses on modeling, in particular hydrological processes and interactions between soil, vegetation and the atmosphere.
