Hi - I'm Jan!
In short, I'm working on marine biodiversity at the science-policy interface. I like to work transdisciplinarily with people from multiple fields so that we can improve marine biodiversity management and policy together.
In a little more detail, my background is in coral reef ecology and I’ve moved to the interface of marine biodiversity and governance. As an interdisciplinary postdoctoral researcher, I currently investigate marine biodiversity in two marine systems (Algoa Bay, South Africa and the Wadden Sea, Southern part of the North Sea) and how they respond to global change. I do this by statistically modelling how environmental changes affect marine biodiversity and, in turn, how they are affecting Nature's Contribution to People. From this, I aim to co-design meaningful biodiversity policy targets together with local stakeholders.
