Profile

Research topics:

Investigation of carbon cycling, primarily soil and ecosystem respiration and their responses to climate change simulation experiments in sandy forest-steppe vegetation.
Elaboration and intercomparison of measuring methods of soil and ecosystem carbon efflux.
Geoinformatic analyses, land use and habitat mapping.
Application, validation and calibration of biogeophysical models (CoupModel, Biome-BGC MuSo) for different ecosystems under different land uses.
Geoinformatic developments and model building for elaboration of ecosystem service indicators and working-out methodology of their analyses.
Spatial analyses of cultural ecosystem services, mainly by the methods of photoseries analyses.
