  1. Forest Resource Assessment: Conduct a comprehensive mapping of forest increment and production, and forest product utilization (e.g., construction materials, pulp and paper, energy).
  2. Scenario Development for Future Wood Supply: Develop a range of future scenarios for wood supply to the built environment, considering factors like forest area changes, climate change, forest type diversity, efficiency improvements, and shifts in wood utilization.
  3. Timber Supply Chain Modeling: Create a spatially explicit model for regionalized timber supply across the EU, incorporating both hardwood and softwood species to meet construction demand.
  4. International Collaboration: Work closely with international project partners to ensure comprehensive analysis and integration of findings on biogenic resource availability.
  5. The postdoc's duties will include research within Forest Resource Modeling and Projection as well as teaching.
