Research experience

Postdoctoral position – Climate-smart indicators of rewilding dynamics (1 Nov. 2023 – )

German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) Halle-Jena-Leipzig, Germany

Climate-smart rewilding aims at addressing the twin threats of climate change and biodiversity loss, I am currently developping quantitative indicators to characterise rewilding contexts and outcomes under the climate-smart framework of the wildE project
