David Montwé

David Montwé is an Assistant Professor in Silviculture at the University of British Columbia's Faculty of Forestry, Department of Forest Resources Management. His research focuses on sustainable forest management through silvicultural interventions to enhance forest resilience to climatic extremes. He integrates methodologies from silviculture, growth and yield modeling, tree-ring science, and climate change adaptation to evaluate timber quality impacts and mitigate forest disturbances under climate change.

• Research Trends: Recent publications highlight his work in drought resilience, biomass estimation via remote sensing, climate-growth relationships, and physiological adaptations in temperate and boreal forests. Studies span experimental drought conditioning, genetic selection, silvicultural treatments, and advanced analytical techniques like deep learning data fusion of ALS and multispectral data.
