Roman Zweifel studied biology at the University of Zurich and at the ETH Zurich where he received a PhD for his ecophysiological work The rhythm of trees. He has a strong expertise in physiological research of forest ecosystems. Roman Zweifel has focused on whole tree gas exchange, mechanisms of the flow and water storage in trees incl. stomatal regulation, and wood anatomy to link tree water relations to its respective growth and carbon balance. He is significantly involved in research how continuously measured stem radius changes (measured by dendrometer) are mechanistically coupled to growth and tree water relations. His current research activities are focused on linking tree physiological processes with the processes on the forest ecosystem level.
