I am interested to unravel the mechanisms that drive wildlife population dynamic and their habitat choice in order to provide management and monitoring tools to managers and decision makers. I have particularly focused my research on game species with special emphasis on Anatidae. I have studied their ecology (from foraging ecology to habitat use) on their wintering, staging and breeding ground in Europe.
I am the PI of the WATBRO project. WATBRO investigates the effects of water browning on lake ecosystem functioning in the boreal zone based on long-term data sets collected in the Evo area, Finland.
I am studying the evolution of waterbird community, land-use and climate change in the Archipelago Sea based on a 40 year bird survey database.
Finally, I am an Academy Research Fellow and PI of the project DiSRUPT - Ducks as Sentinels of endocRine disRUPTing chemicals in surface water funded by the Academy of Finland from 2020 to 2025. DiSRUPT is an International effort to study the effect of Endocrine disruptive contaminants in ducks.
