Herbivore-plant interactions, ecosystem ecology, ecological monitoring, geometrids, insect outbreaks, birch forest, arctic tundra, spatial modeling, GIS, remote sensing

Ecologist with expertise in northern populations and ecosystems, in particular plant-herbivore interactions in sub-arctic birch forests and the forest-tundra ecotone. Among my main interests are studies of the spatio-temporal dynamics of outbreaking geometrid moth species, effects of insect outbreaks on forest ecosystems and ecological monitoring. I am an experienced used of GIS, R and remote sensing in population and landscape studies.
