The dynamics of biotope structures often act as either a cause or a consequence of ecosystem changes. Detailed information about biotope changes is often missing, which limits our understanding of these ecosystems. This PhD thesis opens up the possibility to work with a large variety of remote sensing data (generated from ground-based sensors, aerial, or satellite imagery) to synthesize knowledge about biotope structures and their changes and link it with the changes of the ecosystems. This PhD position offers a great opportunity to join an international research project funded by Biodiversa+ that focuses on redesign of rural landscapes. Good knowledge of the Slovak language is advantageous.
