Current study regions
Central Europe (burnt uplands), Eastern Siberia, EcuadorScientific interests and thematic background
Response of regional landscape components to long-term environmental change
• Morphodynamics (erosion, transport, deposition)
• Fire regimes (intensity, frequency, biomass burnt)
• Hydrological change (lake and ground water)
Drivers of long-term environmental change across spatio-temporal scales
• Climatic change
• Internal geomorphic-ecological system behaviour
• Human land use and land cover change
Fire-Vegetation-Climate interactions in eastern Siberia
