Luitgard Schwendenmann is a German–New Zealand ecosystem scientist, and is a full professor at the University of Auckland, specialising in how nutrients, carbon and water cycle through the soil, plants and atmosphere.
Academic career
Schwendenmann completed a Bachelor of Engineering at Bingen Technical University of Applied Sciences, followed by a Master of Science in Resource Engineering at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and a PhD in landscape ecology at the Georg August University.[1] Schwendenmann joined the faculty of the School of Environment at the University of Auckland in 2010, where she was promoted to full professor in 2024.[2][3]
Schwendemann's research focuses on how nutrients, carbon and water cycle through the soil, plants and atmosphere.[2] Schwendenmann learned about kauri dieback, a fungus-like disease of the native kauri tree, while working on urban ecosystems in Auckland, and became interested in the impact of pathogens on ecosystem functioning.[2] She has also worked on myrtle rust, which affects plants in the Myrtaceae family, which in New Zealand includes pōhutukawa, northern rātā, and southern rātā.[2]
In 2021, Schwendenmann received a Mercator Fellowship to spend three years studying the relationship beween canopy structure and plant water uptake patterns, at the University of Jena in Germany.[4][1]
Schwendenmann is co-lead with Simon Wegner and Nick Waipara of the Ngā Rākau Taketake – Risk Assessment and Ecological Impact theme of the Biological Heritage National Science Challenge.[5][6]
