Freshwater ecologist
I’m a stream ecologist with a focus on functional biodiversity and ecosystem processes. I mainly use detritus-based food webs of streams to study how these elements of ecosystems are interlinked and modified by anthropogenic change. I established a laboratory to study all aspects of the biodiversity, ecology and biogeography of aquatic hyphomycetes, a diverse but understudied group of freshwater saprobic fungi. I use knowledge gained from these studies in collaborative projects with international partners and stakeholders, for instance to develop functional bioindicators.
