Area of research interest
Marine Ecology, with special emphasis on zooplankton ecology, transfer efficiency at the basis
of the food-web, species composition, production and carbon flow. Impacts of climate on
pelagic food-web structures in the Arctic. Ocean-fjord-glacier interaction in Arctic fjord
environments. With experience both in laboratory, field and monitoring projects.
