Forschungsinteressen

I am interested in analysing the interactions between Earth surface processes with changes in biodiversity in contrasting systems at various temporal and spatial scales. For this, I used and developed statistical and numerical tools to investigate:

» The functional biodiversity and biogeographic patterns of organisms.

» The co-evolution of life and (coastal) landscapes.
