Research Interests

My research interests focus on the interactions between people and landscape as well as nature, environment and space. In particular, I care about the following topics:

  • Attitudes of people regarding (former), current and future development of landscape, nature, environment, and space, including long-term monitoring of such attitudes.
  • Behaviour of people with regard to landscape, nature, environment, and space, and the possibilities to influence such behaviour actively.
  • Acceptance of nature conservation measures, such as species-conservation and protected areas, and evaluations of such measures.
