Senior researcher at Aarhus University broadly interested in movement ecology and population biology of wild animals on land and in water.

Very excited to have this paper out in @animalecology.bsky.social
Little is known about how Arctic wildlife responds behaviourally to windspeed. Therefore, we tracked GPS-collared muskoxen to quantify how wind speed and storm events shape their movement and habitat use. Read all about it here!
π Postdoc opportunity!
Weβre looking for one (or two) postdoctoral researchers to join our Arctic Ecology team to work on:
π°οΈ Muskox movement ecology
π Ecosystem & carbon modelling
π Details in the attached flyer.

New study out!! 25 years of harbour porpoise tracking data shows a decline in overlap between habitat suitability and the location of MPAs across the North SeaβBaltic Sea transition zone. Relevant info for the design of future MPAs under the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030!

The prevalence of ultra short baseline acoustic position systems, also known as USBLs π, is understudied in #EuropeanWaters and its effect on marine mammals π, such as the #harbourPorpoise, is mostly unknown. These systems are used in #geophysicalSurveys and during #trawling fishing activities. π§΅1/6
Are you still unsure where to join the discussion with people in #biogeoscience on how #animals affect the #Earth system?π¦¬

The #Arctic flora and fauna are not only responding to #climate change - they also modulate the way ecosystems feed back to the climate system. Read more about how here: www.frontiersin.org/journals/env... @beestfloris.bsky.social @larsholst.bsky.social @jeep4x4.bsky.social @nordborn.bsky.social
Marine ecosystems across the globe are under pressure requiring evaluations of whether marine protected areas (MPAs) remain effective in safeguarding β¦
