Senior researcher at Aarhus University broadly interested in movement ecology and population biology of wild animals on land and in water.

Very excited to have this paper out in @animalecology.bsky.social Little is known about how Arctic wildlife responds behaviourally to windspeed. Therefore, we tracked GPS-collared muskoxen to quantify how wind speed and storm events shape their movement and habitat use. Read all about it here!

Hello Everyone! We are so excited to now be on BlueSky! We are the Danish 🇩🇰 Chapter of APECS - The Association of Polar Early Career Scientists ❄️. We are a dedicated team of ECRs striving to create a representative & supportive community of students & colleagues passionate about our polar systems.

New study out!! 25 years of harbour porpoise tracking data shows a decline in overlap between habitat suitability and the location of MPAs across the North Sea–Baltic Sea transition zone. Relevant info for the design of future MPAs under the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030! shorturl.at/scIGB

Shifts in habitat suitability for harbour porpoises leads to reduced importance of marine protected areas

Marine ecosystems across the globe are under pressure requiring evaluations of whether marine protected areas (MPAs) remain effective in safeguarding …
