One of the IFSA program highlights during the IUFRO 125 Anniversary Congress was the IFSA Incubator Session. Six forestry students took this opportunity to present findings from a research project or recent work experience in form of a TED-Style Talk. Read below: Daniel Schraik, who pursues his master studies in Finland, kicked off the session with insights on his research. Daniel developed a model to measure leaf indices and canopy covers of boreal forests, using satellite data.
