Thomas Lameris

Research interests

I am an ecologist with a passion for migratory birds and the Arctic. My main research focus is to study the ability of migrants to keep up with current Arctic climate warming. I study animals and their food using long-term tracking and reproduction data, field experiments and models.

2018:             Fellow at CAFF (Focussed on AMBI)
