    My primary research interest lies in understanding ecology of watersystems at an integral level with a focus on food web dynamics and implications of biodiversity. Most of my work has a strong applied focus, trying to answer the research questions that arrise from on site, practical management of aquatic ecosystems. Many aquatic ecosystems have been degraded through antropogenic influences, e.g. nutrient loading, removal of habitat structures and direct impact on the food web (e.g. mowing, fishing). To understand and reverse these shifts in ecosystem states, or better yet avoid them if they have not occurred takes a throrough understanding of both external pressures and internal ecosystem functioning. Through mechanistic models, emperical data analysis and field studies I aim to help water managers get a grip on the factors influencing their system and find paths towards ecological restoration. To do so, we need to step out of the water and consider the surrounding physical but also the societal landscape.
