Research Experience
- Leads multiple national and international, multi-institutional, multidisciplinary projects, including:
- TABMON – analysis of bioacoustic monitoring data
- MAMBO – development of workflows to derive habitat condition indicators from airborne LiDAR data
- LTER-LIFE – mobilization, integration, and FAIRification of geospatial and ecological data for Digital Twins of ecosystems
- Contributed to EU-funded projects (e.g., EuropaBON, GLOBIS-B, Biodiversa+ pilot ABMS)
- Involved in Dutch Research Council-supported national initiatives (e.g., eEcoLiDAR, Frugivory & palm diversification, ARISE, Arctic migratory birds)
Background
- Ecologist specializing in biodiversity and ecosystem science
- Currently Associate Professor of Quantitative Biodiversity at the Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED), University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands
- Leads the Biodiversity & Macroecology (BIOMAC) lab within the Department of Theoretical and Computational Ecology (TCE)
- Research bridges ecology with remote sensing, informatics, geospatial data science, computer vision, conservation management, and environmental policy
- Focuses on monitoring biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics using terrestrial, airborne, and satellite remote sensing and ground-based digital sensor networks
- Develops automated data pipelines, high-throughput workflows, and machine learning approaches for biodiversity research
