The overarching goal of my research is to provide resource managers and decision makers with geospatial knowledge, tools and indicators that would enable them to become better stewards of healthy and sustainable (urban) ecosystems. My research interests are interdisciplinary in nature and relate to the assessment of driving forces, interactions, and feedback mechanisms that underly ecosystem dynamics at multiple spatial and temporal scales. I seek to further explore the impact of human activity on ecosystems and to develop novel design concepts and tools for the regeneration of urban areas through nature-based solutions.
