Friederike Wagner-Cremer is a Professor in Palaeoecology at Utrecht University. Her research focuses on the dynamics of vegetation and climate interactions throughout Earth's history. She employs palaeobotany as a tool to investigate how plants have responded to environmental changes, providing significant insights into the historical roles of vegetation systems. Her studies involve the development of palaeo-proxies, which are critical for understanding past atmospheric CO2 dynamics and the physiological responses of plants to climatic pressures. Through innovative field studies, controlled plant growth experiments, and the analysis of fossil records, she reconstructs past climate environments and tests plant responses using historical and subfossil materials. Her work has applications in understanding the sensitivity of ecosystems to climate change throughout various historical eras.
