As a population ecologist, I am interested in seeing how underlying processes influence population dynamics. My work includes simulation studies, meta-species analyses and more applied conservation analyses of single species. My previous work has mostly focussed on (herbaceous) plants but in my current positions I’m focusing on animal populations.

During my Phd I’ve been focussed on investigating how climate influences population dynamics. In particular, I’ve tested long-standing assumptions about the a priori assumptions of when climate is important to plant vital rates (e.g., survival or flower probability).

Currently I’m using spatially explicit demographic models to adress several several pressing conservation questions.
