Forschungsinteressen

Mein allgemeines Forschungsinteresse gilt dem Verständnis der Auswirkungen abiotischer und biotischer Faktoren auf biotische Interaktionen und biologische Invasionen. Meine Forschungserfahrung liegt hauptsächlich in der Ökologie von Pflanzengemeinschaften. Dabei untersuche ich räumliche Muster und Prozesse durch eine Kombination aus Beobachtungsstudien, manipulativen Experimenten und quantitativen Reviews. Derzeit zielt meine Arbeit darauf ab, zu erforschen, wie Gemeinschaften und Artinteraktionen auf Umweltveränderungen in Raum und Zeit reagieren.

Forschungsschwerpunkte

  • Kontextabhängigkeit biotischer Interaktionen
  • Struktur und Zusammensetzung von Gemeinschaften
  • Koexistenz von Arten
  • Invasionen von Pflanzen
