Research Summary
I am interested in the interconnectedness of above and belowground biological processes. How these depend on and relate to each other, thereby shaping ecosystems and their functions. By applying this in the context of harsh Arctic winter conditions, I hope to contribute to our understanding of how Arctic ecosystems will change in a warming world and what feedback effects this may have on a global scale.
