Marko Smiljanić

Marko Smiljanić is a researcher at the Institute of Botany and Landscape Ecology, University of Greifswald, Germany, actively contributing to the Landscape Ecology and Ecosystem Dynamics working group. His institutional base is located at Soldmannstraße 15, Room 2.30 in Greifswald, with direct contact via telephone (+49 3834 4204141) and email.

His research specializes in three interconnected ecological domains:

• Dendroecology: Analysis of tree-ring patterns to reconstruct historical environmental conditions and ecosystem responses
• Tree growth: Investigation of physiological and environmental drivers affecting arboreal development cycles
• Plant ecology: Examination of plant community dynamics, species interactions, and adaptation mechanisms within changing landscapes

These research strands collectively address climate-vegetation feedback loops and long-term ecosystem resilience. Dr. Smiljanić operates within the Landscape Ecology and Ecosystem Dynamics team, which employs interdisciplinary approaches to model ecological processes across spatial and temporal scales, with particular emphasis on dendrochronological methods for environmental reconstruction.
