Hej! My name is Dafne Ram and I am a new PhD student at the Biodiversity Unit. I will study how birds and butterflies are distributed at the forest-farmland interface and how they respond to changes in land use and climate. I will work under supervision of Åke Lindström, Lars Pettersson and Paul Caplat.
I am from the Netherlands, where I completed my bachelor studies on nature and wildlife management. I then did my master degree here in Lund majoring in animal ecology. After my master I have worked on a project on forest bird trends with Åke Lindström and others at the Biodiversity/Monitoring group. I am very excited to continue working in this group as a PhD student!
