Biography

My research concerns assessing the consequences of land use change and climate change on ecosystem services and species distributions, to improve spatial planning. 

Active projects are on multiple landscape benefits and trade-offs, mapping of key ecosystem services, and the development of interactive tools that facilitate decision and participation by experts and non-experts.

I am also a member of the scientific steering  committee of the Ecosystem Services Partnership.

More information about my research can be found here.
