Summary of research interests
Generalization and specialization in pollination interactions, bee movement patterns, influence of habitat fragmentation on soil arthropods
I am an ecologist interested in mutualistic interactions between plants and animals with a special focus on pollination interactions. My research focuses on pollination networks and patterns of generalization and specialization within these networks, and the influence of habitat fragmentation on these interaction networks.
I am further interested in understanding the space use and movement patterns of bumblebees bees. First attempts of using radio telemetry techniques are promising.
