Research interests

New: as of September 2018 Professor of Biogeography, Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, Institute of Physical Geography, Goethe-University Frankfurt

I'm an Assistant Professor at the Department of Biogeography (University of Bayreuth). My main research interests include:

  •    Island biogeography and ecology, especially focusing on the endemic plant species of La Palma (Canary Islands)
  •    Global treeline patterns with a particular (but not exclusive) focus on islands
  •    Biogeography and ecology of high-elevation ecosystems on oceanic islands and how disturbances shape these systems (e.g. introduced herbivores, fire, etc.)
  •    Spatial and ecological distribution of endemic and inuslar species and the possible effects of climate change on this distribution
  •    Primary succession on lava flows
  •    Global and macroecological patterns of all sort mainly revolving around diversity, rarity, endemism and invasion

I'm board member of the newly founded Society of Island Biology (SIB): www.islandbiology.com
