Our lab's mission is to understand the links between optical, biochemical and functional traits of vegetation.

We join CREDIBLE action to build carbon farming markets and policies we can trust! project-credible.eu/ @helsinkiuni takes the lead in the focus group of proximal sensing and digitalization for carbon farming. Interested in joining the focus group? ➜ @PaulinaRajewicz

Season's greetings from OPL! Tested: 1)Red #Poinsettia leaves absorb PAR but do not fluoresce👉they do not photosynthesize, 2)We have a fluorescent logo😮! No wonder #SIF is great at capturing the optical expression of photosynthesis in its purest state. @ForestSciences,@INAR_fin

Is your hemispherical photography kit weighing you down? Craving spontaneous #forest structure-related fieldwork? Then app.cano.fi/ is for you! Use Canofi to produce hemispherical photos with your phone, no additional hardware required. @PlantSpps @ForestSciences

Dancing in the drought. Dynamic canopy structure and foliar physiology are captured by Solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) during water stress. Read our open access paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2021.1… @INAR_fin @Viikki_plants @AgriForHelsinki @fgi_nls @dronefinland

We simulated the faint glow of #fluorescence in a virtual 3D forest. Check out the open access paper here sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #TLS #LaserScanning #photosynthesis
The chl fluorescence emission distribution of whole tree crowns cannot be measured, right? It can at night! New @OptPhotoLab work sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #remotesensing #photosynthesis #Fastcam17
Brainstorming sessions today at #FAST2019WS @HyytialaHY around our #Fastcam17 multiscale #fluorescence campaign results. Themes: Molecular/Leaf, Canopy/Ecosystem and Modelling. Trying to find a common language from photosystems to global models. #remotesensing @Suomenakatemia

First impact from our #kärkihankeet #vihreavalo project. Today harvest time! Welcome to pick some potatoes today and tomorrow from Latokartanonkaari 7. @helsinkiuni #viikki #MMTDK

Our key funding projects are about to end. Today we learn what the outcome of these 101 projects is! Minister of Education, @sannigrahn emphasizes importance of research to cope with our society's challenges. #kärkihankkeet #vihreavalo @ForestSciences @helsinkiuni

This week multiscale campaign grand finale with @headwall fluorescence imager with guest star @albert_loren from @BrownUniversity, plus canopy Kautsky and night fun 😊. Now time for a rest and some fresh potatoes! #vihreavalo @helsinkiuni @SuomenAkatemia

Can we track midday depression of photosynthesis, and its dependency on water stress, with solar-induced fluorescence?... physiology and/or canopy structure? #vihreavalo @helsinkiuni @SuomenAkatemia
More on potatoes :): today diurnal profiles of PAM F, SIF, thermal, and transpirarion rates on water control and treatment using the lift. Stay tunned for timelapse video! Now lunch time 😊🌞 #vihreavalo

Excellent weather today for quasi synchronous spectral and fluorescence measurements. Plenty of differences between well irrigated and stressed plots at 30C 🌞! With @fgi_nls. #vihreavalo @helsinkiuni @SuomenAkatemia

Lift and plants ready for this week's multiscale measurements...nice view of our potato plants from up here :) #vihreavalo

Replying to @hsfi
@hsfi promised exceptional hot week! Looking fantastic for our drought experiments! Although, given the effort we made in preparing the rain shelters it would feel nice to use them 😄! #vihreavalo
this year's drone features DFOV spectrometer system for fluorescence, stabilised with gimbal, and with synchronised RGB video, in collab with @fgi_nls #vihreavalo #remotesensing

At last, day 1 is over :). First reference measurements done! A bit of rain but we will repeat flights tomorrow, hopefully more sun #vihreavalo
