Ecofluent is committed to conserve and sustainably manage our water resources.

Oslo, Oslo, Norge

Researcher in the Geo-Ecology (GEco) research group mainly working on developing Nature in Norway (Natur i Norge, NiN), a mapping and classification system incorporating all nature in Norway.

Oslo, Norway

Teaching landscape architecture students how to incorporate ecological principles into their landscape designs.

Flødevigen, Norway

I was involved in a range of different projects (among others): * Developing a statistical model for the spatial distribution of kelp forest along the Norwegian coast* Testing and developing marine NiN (Nature in Norway), a classification system aiming at describing all nature in Norway

Oslo-området, Norge

I was involved in:* Data analysis aiming to explain the causes of melanin spots in farmed salmon* Modelling the amount of sea lice found in salmon farms* Conducting Monte Carlo simulations of sea lice counts in order to implement regulations concerning changes in production levels

Trondheim-området, Norge

I was mainly involved in revising the sampling methodology and sampling strategy in the MAREANO project (www.mareano.no), one of the worlds largest offshore mapping programs. I was the lead developer of a new randomised and spatially balanced sampling strategy. Furthermore, I developed an Environmental Variability Index that can be used for long-term.

Oslo Area, Norway

I was involved in teaching graduate courses in multivariate statistics and species distribution modelling. I also developed a two-day introductory R-course given to other scientists at the Natural History Museum. This course has also been given to colleagues at the Geological Survey of Norway and been translated to Spanish and given at La Universdad.

I studied species-environment relationships of marine benthic macrofauna in the Oslofjord. These relationships were analysed using indirect gradient analysis (i.e., analyses of gradients in species composition and their relation to environmental conditions).

I worked in an interdisciplinary environment consisting of social scientists, resource economists, fisheries technologists, and marine ecologists conducting research aiming to enhance the governance and resource management of fisheries and other stakeholder activities in the coastal zone.My main achievement was to gather long time series of fisheries data.
