I am a plant ecologist focusing on how vegetation impacts the production, uptake and release of greenhouse gases and biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) in boreal peatlands. I would like to understand which properties of peatland plants, plant communities and ecosystems make up peatland carbon cycle and influence the response of peatlands to changing environment. I find it very rewarding when I’m able to build links between these different spatial scales. Currently, I am working with my Academy of Finland -funded post doc project where I study how BVOCs are produced and taken up in the peat and moss layer of peatlands and how their emission into the atmosphere impact climate through aerosol formation.
