Research interests
I'm an arctic soil ecologist interested in the plant-soil continuum, with a particular focus on how the presence or absence of given soil organisms affects ecosystem functioning and services. My current focus is on using ancient environmental-DNA to reconstruct the past soil food webs in Fennoscandia.
I investigate the modalities of dispersal of different soil organisms, from bacteria to earthworms and rodents, into Arctic soil systems and notably thawing permafrost, as well as the biogeochemical consequences of such dispersal. My toolkit ranges from laboratory incubation studies to long-term field experiments, and combines biogeochemistry, stable isotope approaches, community ecology and molecular methods, keeping in mind the necessity to better inform regional and circum-arctic scales process-based models.
