  Chair of Environmental Protection and Landscape Management

My teaching focuses on environmental ecology, monitoring, and practical training. Since January 2025, I have been the curriculum leader for the Environmental Protection program. My research explores bird migration and habitat use via radiotelemetry. In 2022, the project "Effects of Noise on Capercaillie Lekking Behavior" began in cooperation with the University of Tartu. I coordinate the national monitoring of geese and Common Cranes.
