As a vegetation ecologist and trained geographer I am keen to improve process understanding of dynamic landscapes and plant communities at various spatial and temporal scales .

My research group adopts a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to better understand the linkages between ecological, geomorphological/hydrological and anthropogenic processes in coastal and riparian landscapes. Our research output aims to help designing and implementing scalable Nature-based Solutions at land-water interfaces.

 

Key words:

• Coastal Vegetation Ecology
• Biogeomorphology and biophysical interactions
• Mangroves, salt marshes, dunes, riparian floodplains
• Restoration Ecology
• Nature-based solutions
• Management of dynamic landscapes
• Ecosystem services
• Disturbance and seedling ecology
• Coastal environmental change
• Plant ecology and phenology
