I am an environmental engineer interested in water management focusing mainly in lake and river ecosystems. My main research interest is the link between catchment properties, water quality and the impact in aquatic ecosystems.
In my PhD project, I am trying to understand how forest management activities such as clear cut and ditch cleaning can affect the water quality and the aquatic ecosystem functioning.
