My interests are Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in urban and cultural landscapes. The National Biodiversity assessment “Faktencheck Artenvielfalt” was recently published with my collaboration: https://doi.org/10.14512/9783987263361
Furthermore, I am involved in the development of an integrated strategy for adaptation to the consequences of climate change for Braunschweig (COABS) and conduct research in the CliMax project on climate protection and adaptation to climate change through urban greenery. Since 2014, I have been involved as a visiting scientist in the Narragansett Bay Coyote Study in Rhode Island and was supported by a DAAD scholarship in 2018 and a TU Braunschweig matching fund in 2022.
