The Arctic is changing at an alarming rate, including for example increasing air temperature, changes in precipitation and mass losses in the cryosphere. These climate-triggered changes cascading further into the biogeochemistry and fragile ecology of the Arctic aquatic systems are my broad scientific interest. In my postdoc project I focus on transfer of organic carbon in the aquatic network and it’s effects on freshwater ecology in the highly connected and lake-rich tundra environment in the surroundings of Cambridge Bay (Victoria Island, NU). My work involves both water biogeochemistry and sedimentary methods.
 
In addition to the Arctic, I also work with boreal winter limnology at Lake Simoncouche. There I am particularly interested in the fine scale temporal and vertical changes in organic matter quantity, quality and biolability for both dissolved and particulate organic matter over the ice-covered season.
