Research interest

• Fisheries oceanography
• Fish population ecology
• Spatial and temporal dynamics of fish populations

My primary interest focuses on fisheries oceanography and fish population ecology. I investigate spatial and temporal dynamics of large fish populations in relation to landscape, climate variability, fisheries exploitation and density-dependent processes. Analytical aspects of my work concern the use of statistical models for quantification of ecological processes that regulate variability in marine populations.

Current research (includes projects)

Waking the Deads - modeling long term temporal and spatial variations of historically targeted species from the eastern North Sea and the Baltic Sea using long time-series data

Scale related fisheries-induced depletion processes on fish populations using case studies from both the Bering Sea and the eastern North Sea
