Research Interests
In my research, I combine ecological modelling with empirical data analysis to understand the dynamics of forest and coastal ecosystems. A particular focus is on mangroves and their adaptation mechanisms to environmental stresses, especially water availability. To this end, I develop and use individual-based models to simulate plant interactions and ecosystem processes. I am also interested in good modelling practice and work on transparent, reproducible and modular models for ecological questions.
