Welcome to the webpage of our lab!

We study the dynamics of populations, species communities and ecological systems including their interplay with human activities and their services. Our main focus is on forest systems but our research interest is manifold. It ranges from the micro-scale of bacteria to the macro scale of agro-forest-pasture systems.
