As Editor-in-Chief of Forests, I am pleased to announce the two awardees for the 2020 Forests Graduate Student/Post-Doc Travel Awards.
Morgan Crowley is a PhD candidate at the Department of Natural Resource Sciences, McGill University, Québec, Canada. Her current research focuses on mapping and analyzing forest fires in Canada using satellite-based remote sensing and Google Earth Engine.
Ninni Saarinen is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Forest Sciences, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland. Her current research focuses on characterizing and modeling of forest ecosystems at various scales—from the branches and stem of an individual tree to regional and national scale monitoring.
We had many impressive applicants for this award, and we congratulate our two recipients.
