Current Research:

My current research within the project SusAlps analyzes how farmer’s decisions on (sub-)alpine grassland management are influenced by different policy measures and climate change. These linkages will be modelled with an agent-based model considering preferences for different ecosystem services as well as biophysical and economic data.

Research interests:

  • Landscape ecology, especially ecosystem services, biodiversity and trade-offs
  • Spatial conservation planning
  • Environmental Economics
  • Mathematical Optimization
