Ecological communities consist of different species that interact directly and indirectly with each other. The overarching theme of my research is understanding what makes species’ communities as they are and how they will change under the ever-intensifying anthropogenic pressures. In my research, I focus on the biodiversity trends at large spatial and temporal scales and on a wide range of taxa. I’m broadly interested in theoretical ecology, species’ interactions, biogeography, species’ traits, global change drivers, species distribution modelling, and related to all these: handling large datasets.
