Christer Nilsson Utskrift E-post

Jag är ekolog med intresse för rinnande vatten. Jag skriver uppsatser och ansökningar, administrerar projekt, föreläser, handleder doktorander samt granskar andras uppsatser och ansökningar. Jag är knuten som redaktör till tidskrifterna Ecological Applications; Journal of Ecology; Ecosystems; Ecology & Society; Freshwater Biology; och Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and Systematics. Mina forskningsområden handlar om följder av klimatförändringar på hydrologi och våtmarksvegetation, effekter av restaurering, samt hydrologiska förändringars hot mot den biologiska mångfalden. Gemensamt för forskningen är att jag analyserar naturen utifrån ett storskaligt – i flera fall globalt – perspektiv, och försöker förstå hur olika delar av landskapet hänger samman ekologiskt.
