Personal profile
Research Interests
Troy Magney is a forest ecophysiologist whose work bridges the fields of tree physiology, ecosystem ecology, and remote sensing. His research program focuses on how plants absorb, reflect, and emit energy to monitor photosynthesis, stress, and carbon cycling across spatial scales. His lab develops new field instrumentation and modeling approaches to track ecosystem function from the leaf to the satellite - contributing to climate and carbon monitoring initiatives and understanding vegetation dynamics in the context of forest management. He likes to tinker, ride bikes, run rivers and recreate on public lands.
