Arctic ecologist living in Nuuk. Interested in the effects of herbivores in ecosystems and rewilding. Scientific illustrator in my free time.
🦌🦢🌿How do tundra herbivores shape nutrient cycles?
We developed the first multispecies NIRS-based open-source model to quantify nitrogen, phosphorus & carbon in faeces of tundra herbivores in Iceland (geese, reindeer, sheep).

🌸Plant diversity dynamics over space and time in a warming Arctic 🌸
Our new study @nature.com analysed plant diversity change in >2000 tundra plots over 4 decades. We found that plants changed unevenly, mostly driven by warming and biotic interactions.

New paper out! 🦌 We dive into 30 years of research on Iberian wild ungulates. From hunting to disease dynamics, we review their impacts and call for adaptive management to balance conservation and coexistence. Read more here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
