I am mainly interested in the ecology, diversity, and biogeography of limno-terrestrial and aquatic diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) in polar and sub-polar regions, with a primary focus on Antarctica. Diatoms are eukaryotic unicellular algae present in almost every freshwater and terrestrial habitat (i.e. ponds, lakes, seepage areas, wet mosses and soils), and are one of the most diverse and abundant algal groups in Antarctica. Their species-specific morphological features, unique responses to different environmental conditions, and excellent preservation in sediments make diatoms excellent environmental indicators, useful in reconstructing climate changes, and model organisms for studying microbial species ranges and dispersal.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I am an ecologist primarily interested in how freshwater microbial communities are formed, maintained, and interact with their world, especially within the context of the global climate crisis. At present, my research focusses on the community dynamics and biogeochemical cycling of benthic biofilms within glacier-fed streams.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I am interested in the diversity, ecology and evolution of diatoms, especially in the cryosphere-associated habitats of the alpine and polar regions of the Earth. I tend to study diatoms by means of a polyphasic approach, with an emphasis on the methods of microbial culturing, molecular biology and bioinformatics, and spanning the levels of populations, species and communities. I am particularly interested in (1) how (cryptic) species diversity is generated and how to disentangle it (i.e., species delimitation research), and (2) how species diversity is generated and maintained at the community level (i.e., community assembly and biogeographic research). Inevitably, these research questions also bring me to the edge of theoretical evolutionary biology, to the area called (3) the Species Problem, concerned with the intricate question of ‘What is a species?’<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

My main research interests are the ecology, physiology, and life cycle of polar microalgae, in particular their freezing adaptations and ability to thrive in extreme polar environments. I contribute to field studies of freshwater polar diatoms, sea ice diatoms, and biological soil crusts in the Arctic to gain insight into their unique adaptations and interactions within their ecosystems. I also focus on eco-physiological experiments, mainly on diatoms, to understand their responses to environmental stressors and their contribution to ecosystem functioning.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
