Background

About Franka Gaiser

Up to now, we just know little fractions of the ecosystems, in which we humans live in, thoroughly. It's for sure that these ecosystems are highly complex and we humans are just one out of many cogs in the wheel. In order to live responsibly in our environment, awareness about the long-term consequences of our actions and about the uncertainty of such predictions is crucial. By doing novel research, I'd like to contribute to this awareness and a respective sensitivity when dealing with our nature. Thereby, I'm mainly fascinated by the complexity of our ecosystems and the challenge to understand societal and natural processes jointly instead of isolated. That's why I have been specialising myself in the area of ecological data analysis in the last years and are currently working on global data sets covering different periods of earth's history. In general, I'm always welcoming every dataset anyways.
