Baltic Nest Institute

The Baltic Nest Institute (BNI) at Stockholm University provides scientific basis for ecosystem-based management of the Baltic Sea by maintaining and developing data bases and models with a holistic Baltic Sea perspective.

Ecosystem modelling

We develop models to facilitate decision-making at national and international level, particularly with regard to eutrophication and its links to climate change and higher nutrient levels.

About me

My current research is focused on understanding the magnitude and dynamics of nutrient legacies in agricultural landscapes in the Baltic region and how they contribute to river loads to the sea. To that end, I develop and apply numerical models to try and capture the effects of historical agricultural practices and water management on nutrient cycles at the watershed scale.

I have side interests in programming and computational techniques, and a long experience in modeling groundwater flow and transport processes in deep fractured bedrock and engineered buffer materials to support the risk assessment for final nuclear waste repositories.
