Postdoctoral Research Associate in Arctic Terrestrial Ecology<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am a plant ecologist who conducts research both at the macroecological scale and at local scales across the Arctic. I am interested in how tundra plants are dealing with climate change, and I work both with vascular and non-vascular plants (lichens and bryophytes). Broadly, I research species diversity and distributions, plant traits, large-scale processes of change (e.g., borealization, shrubification), and species\u2019 potential for adaptation under increasingly warmer conditions. I have carried out Arctic fieldwork across sites in the Canadian Yukon, Svalbard and Greenland. Additionally, I have worked extensively in biodiversity conservation (e.g., at IUCN) and the science\/policy interface, to which I have contributed at the Scottish and European levels (e.g., through the IPBES European regional assessment).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
