Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNadja Simons is a Juniorprofessor and ecologist with nine years of research experience studying how land-use and management decisions shape arthropod diversity and ecosystem functioning in forests and grasslands. Her work combines field experiments and applied ecological methods to link species’ functional diversity across spatial and temporal scales to the delivery of ecosystem services, with a particular focus on insects and deadwood. She translates scientific findings into actionable guidance for managers and planners, aiming to integrate biodiversity considerations into decision-making and public communication. Based in Kitzingen, Bavaria, she blends rigorous academic training (PhD from TUM) with hands-on data analysis in R and LaTeX, making her research both policy-relevant and reproducible.
