معرفی
Sara Di Bert is a Lecturer at ETH Zurich's Department of Environmental Systems Science, specializing in soil-plant-water interactions and terrestrial ecosystem dynamics. Her research focuses on hydraulic properties of rock-soil-root systems, bedrock water contributions to plant survival under drought conditions, and the role of root mucilage in soil structure. She investigates mechanisms like root shrinkage and embolism repair to understand plant resilience in challenging environments.
Her work combines field studies with experimental approaches, addressing questions about water availability in terrestrial systems and plant adaptation strategies. Current research emphasizes integrating geological and biological factors to improve ecological and hydrological models. Contact: sara.dibert@usys.ethz.ch.
