As a biogeochemist and modeller, I work with unraveling the complex interactions between climate, hydrology, and elemental cycles to understand how boreal ecosystems respond to extremes like droughts and floods. My work bridges science and real-world application—using long-term data, models, and field insights to inform sustainable land and water management in northern environments.

Presentation

I am a biogeochemical modeller and coordinator at the Department of Forest Ecology and Management, SLU. My research focuses on the interconnected biological, chemical, and physical processes that drive the cycling of carbon, nutrients, and water in boreal ecosystems, particularly in the Krycklan catchment. I specialise in translating complex mechanistic understanding into conceptual models to simulate patterns of energy flow, nutrient cycling, and hydrologic routing across heterogeneous landscapes.

Research

My current work examines how climate extremes—such as droughts and floods—reshape biogeochemical dynamics, with a focus on dissolved organic carbon, cations, anions, stable isotopes, and water fluxes. A central theme of my research is scaling: linking plot-scale processes to large catchment responses and identifying the transformation zones that influence water quality and ecosystem function along the way.

In addition to research, I coordinate strategic initiatives within the department, contributing to interdisciplinary collaboration, project management, and developing long-term landscape monitoring and modelling frameworks.
