Hello world! #introduction

I am a research #ecologist at the #Finnish #Museum of #NaturalHistory #Luomus #UniversityofHelsinki. I lead the common #bird #monitoring in #Finland and collaborate in Europe through #EuropeanBirdCensusCouncil.

The main research themes of my research group #HelsinkiLabofOrnithology are how #climatechange and human #landuse are affecting #biodiversity using #birds as the main study taxon. I also like #science communication.
