Current project
I am working in the Global Change Experimental Facility (GCEF) where both future climate and different land-use practices of agricultural grasslands are simulated. Nested in the GCEF, I am establishing a seed addition experiment to simulate the (im)migration of novel plant species. Particularly, I aim ...
- to analyze the climate niches of resident species and novel colonizers as predictors of species responses to climate change in grasslands with different land-use;
- to assess how land-use, climate manipulation and alterations in disturbance affect the immigration of short- vs. long-lived colonizer species by investigating their demography and expression of functional traits;
- to assess how the re-assembly and productivity of the plant communities are affected by the colonization of novel species.
