Personal profile
Research expertise
I am part of the team that coordinates the monitoring activities in the UNECE ICP Forests Level II plots in Flanders, Belgium and the current chair of the ICP Forests Expert Panel on Deposition. My research is on the impact of atmospheric deposition on forests, with focus on element cycling, dissolved organic matter and (recovery from) acidification and nitrogen saturation.
