My research focuses on ecological and evolutionary responses to environmental change at the base of the food web€”involving macroalgae and seagrass, both of which play a prominent ecological and economical role in the fjords of Norway. My long-term research goal is to understand functional-trait variation at the molecular level and to apply this knowledge towards sustainable growth of economically important algae, and towards the management of kelp forests and seagrass meadows under the impact of climate change. Epigenetic research allows to understand trait variation and biodiversity from an entirely new perspective. I aim to apply this knowledge towards societally relevant questions related to coastal ecosystem management and protection in light of increasing human impact and to sustainable cultivation of kelp along Arctic shores
