Lukasz Pawlik is a PhD candidate at University of Silesia in Katowice at the Institute of Earth Sciences. His research focuses on the effects of windstorms on European forest ecosystems. In his presentation, Lukasz explained how the combination of several data sets on tree features, bioclimatic and geomorphic conditions, and the level of forest damage in the Sudety Mountains over the period 2004-2010, to map forest damage probability based on forest data from 202. Eventually, Lukasz focusses on how,using only 11 variables based on the open source datasets, his research effort was able to obtain predictive models of good accuracy.
