Special focus within my research lies in studying the importance of organic matter (humic substances) and nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) for lake ecosystem productivity and food web structure.

My research focuses on the controls over ecosystem structure and functioning in streams, rivers, and watersheds. We study these systems to understand their condition as natural resources, but also as models to test general ecological and biogeochemical principles.

I’m an environmental scientist. With that I mean that I base my science on environmental issues with high societal values, rather than on traditional scientific disciplines.

My primary research focus is on the pathways linking key environmental processes across geographic scales. Lakes are typically studied individually, or in small groups in close proximity, and this inhibits identification of mechanisms by which large-scale factors like climate change influence ecosystem patterns and processes.
