AREA OF RESEARCH INTEREST
My research effort is focused on impacts of climate change on marine ecology and food
web structures in Arctic coastal waters. With special emphasis on ocean-fjord-glacier
interaction in Greenland fjord environments in contact with the Greenland Ice Sheet. I work
with pelagic processes and relations between oceanography, chemistry and biology within
zoo-plankton ecology, transfer efficiency at the basis of the food-web, species composition,
production and carbon flow. I hold broad experience in fieldwork, laboratory experimental
work within science and monitoring projects.
