“The struggle to maintain biodiversity is going to be won or lost in agricultural ecosystems”
McIntyre et al., 1992
About us
The Group of Agro-ecological Modeling investigates the effects of changes in land use and landscape structure on biodiversity, ecosystem functions and services. For this purpose, we combine a wide range of methods such as field studies, ecological and biogeographical modeling, remote sensing, applied (geo)statistics and Machine/Deep Learning. Our research aims at a better understanding and improved modeling of functional relationships in landscapes, but is also closely related to applied questions of resource management and nature conservation.

Teaching
The Agroecological Modelling (AEcoMod) lab hosted their partners in the EU Horizon 2020 project EarthBridge, together with a selected group of early-career scientists from the Universities of Bonn, Dresden, Bologna, and Prague. The goal of this gathering was to empower the selected participants with advanced collaborative research skills in a multi-institutional and multidisciplinary context.
