Herpetologist by passion and tropical ecologist by training (or vice versa) I have been heading the herpetology section at the Senckenberg Natural History Collections Dresden since 2010. As animal ecologist I am interested in how phylogeny and ecology drive patterns of functional diversity in biological communities and how elucidating underlying processes can guide conservation management decisions. I have been engaged in tropical research, particularly in the Neo- and Afrotropics, for over two decades.

Research interests

My research focusses on the interplay between plants and animals and their interactions with the abiotic and biotic environment. In particular, I study the dynamics of temperate and tropical forest ecosystems across elevational and land use gradients. In one of my research themes, I study the dispersal of seeds by animals, which is one of the key ecosystem services for natural forest restoration. I combine a diverse set of methods, ranging from field observations and experiments to molecular and meta-analytic approaches and advanced statistical modelling to project the response capacity of plants to land use and climate change.

In one of my projects, we examine seed dispersal pattern by nutcrackers (Nucifraga caryocatactes) along environmental gradients in alpine pine forests. We investigate, how seed deposition by nutcrackers and other biotic and abiotic drivers relate to the potential of Swiss stone pine seedlings (Pinus cembra) to establish.

DFG project NE 1863 2-2 “The role of intraspecific variation in seed dispersal, traits, and genetic diversity for the response capacity of plants to climate change”; PhD student Valentin Graf

In other projects in the tropical Andes, we study how abiotic and biotic filters affect the regeneration of plants of various life history traits across an elevational and disturbance gradient in Southern Ecuador. In Northern Ecuador, we study how seed dispersal networks (birds and rodents) reassemble across a forest disturbance gradient in the Chocó region.

Research interests

My group works on the evolution of diversity in molluscs and other marine invertebrates. Morphology shapes how each species responds to environmental change, in the modern world and in the fossil record. We often focus on very strange body forms, like bivalved gastropods, or apparently conservative forms, like chitons. We use tomography (right) to visualise animal adaptations in 3D and understand the world from other organisms‘ points of view.

Understanding evolutionary radiations, survivorship, and the way animals respond to environmental change, require high resolution data from multiple disciplines, and the research infrastructure in museum collections. The work in my research group crosses genetics, morphology, anatomy, neurobiology, physiology, computational modelling, and experimental approaches, to understand species diversity.

Some of these are discussed in my recent book, What Species Mean: A User’s Guide to the Units of Biodiversity, published by CRC/Taylor & Francis in early 2018.

Research interests

From basic everyday foraging behaviors to extraordinary long-distance migrations: animal movements are important for species survival, ecosystem functioning, and biodiversity. My research bridges across theoretical and applied aspects of movement ecology, from the behavioral underpinnings and social interactions to ecosystem functions and macro-ecological patterns. I am particular interested in studying the exceptional challenges that an increasing human footprint poses for movements of wildlife, which ultimately leads to the question of human wildlife coexistence. To that end, I pursue an integrated social-ecological research program to better understand human wildlife interactions and develop sustainable conservation recommendations.

Dr. Scherf’s research interests lie in the effects of locomotor loads on internal bony structures of long bones in primates including fossil and extant humans. Analyses of locomotion related structures in extant species are used as comparative basis to interpret the bony morphology in long bones of fossil species with regard to their preferred type of locomotion. In this field of research special attention is paid to:
• Functional adaptation of cancellous bone
• Quantification of the trabecular architecture
• Functional structures in cortical bone
• Application of high resolution CT to fossil bones
• Estimation of habitual locomotor loads
• Estimation of stresses in bone structures caused by habitual locomotion
As accurate handling of digital data, e.g. CT data, build the first step for the interpretation of internal structures, Dr. Scherf has put an additional research focus on the development of reproducible and accurate computerized pre-processing and analysing methods for complex internal bone structures (e.g. cancellous bone).

Fields of interest

I am fascinated by interactions between organisms, especially if they are mutually beneficial for both partners*. To understand the structure and function of ecological networks, I study species interactions in ecological communities along environmental gradients and across large spatial scales. My research uses trait-based approaches in combination with field studies, experiments and simulation models to predict the impacts of climate and land-use change on ecosystem functions and services. (*I usually become enthusiastic if one of the interaction partners has wings and a beak.)

Ich bin Botanikerin mit Forschungsinteressen an mitteleuropäischer und mongolischer Pflanzendiversität sowie an der Entwicklung neuer und innovativer Analysemethoden in Herbarien. Meine derzeitige Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die langfristigen Auswirkungen des globalen Wandels auf die Pflanzen der mongolischen Steppenökosysteme.

Projekt:

Pflanzenphänologie, -verbreitung und funktionelle Merkmale in mongolischen Weidelandschaften.

Wir untersuchen die langfristigen Auswirkungen des globalen Wandels auf Pflanzengesellschaften, Verbreitungsgebiete, Phänologie und biochemische Pflanzenmerkmale in der Mongolischen Steppe. Für unsere Forschung führen wir Feldarbeit in der Mongolei durch und nutzen Herbarien.

Forschungsinteressen

Die Tiefsee ist der größte Lebensraum der Welt, jedoch gehört sie zu den am wenigsten erforschten Regionen. Unsere bisherigen Erkenntnisse dokumentieren jedoch eine sehr hohe Artenvielfalt am Meeresboden der Tiefsee. Ich versuche daher mit meiner Arbeitsgruppe die Artenvielfalt der Tiefsee zu erfassen, die Verbreitung der Organismen zu analysieren sowie ihre Ökologie und Evolution zu erforschen.

In meiner Arbeitsgruppe wird hauptsächlich an Krebsen (insbesondere Meeresasseln, Isopoda) als Modellorganismen gearbeitet, da diese Tiergruppe in der Tiefsee sehr häufig ist und gute Vergleichsuntersuchungen vorliegen. Wir analysieren die stammesgeschichtliche Herkunft und Besiedlungsgeschichte der Isopoden in der Tiefsee (wie z. B. Sub- und Emergenzphänomne im Südpolarmer), wir versuchen zu analysieren welches in der Tiefsee die treibenden Faktoren für die hohe Diversität sind und bearbeiten Artbildung, Konkurrenz und Koexistenz in Raum und Zeit.

Unsere aktuellen Projekte thematisieren die Besiedlungsmuster in der Tiefsee sowie ihre ökologischen und evolutionsbiologischen Hintergründe sowie die mögliche zukünftige Entwicklung der Biodiversität.

Lehre

Ich unterrichte ich im Fachbereich Biowissenschaften am Institut für Ökologie und Evolution an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt.

Im Bachelorstudiengang Biowissenschaften betreue ich einen Kurs im Bachelormodul 6b „Diversität der Organismen: Zoologie“. Im Rahmen von Exkursionen, Vorlesungen und eines Praktikums behandle ich die Systematik und Anatomie ausgewählter Tierstämme und unterrichte über die Bedeutung naturwissenschaftlicher Sammlungen und Forschungsmuseen.

Für das Mastermodul Evo-11 „Integrative Biodiversitätsforschung in der Zoologie“ habe ich mit Herrn Dr. Riehl und Kolleg*innen einen interaktiven und sehr praxisorientierten Kursteil entworfen, der innerhalb von zwei Wochen alle wichtigen Arbeitsschritte der taxonomisch-systematischen Erforschung von Tiefseemakrofauna vermittelt. Die Teilnehmer sortieren echte Tiefseeproben, entdecken und bestimmen Organismen daraus und erlernen dann über die Praxis das taxonomische Beschreiben einer Art, das Charakterisieren und kodieren von morphologischen Merkmalen sowie das Erstellen von Bestimmungsschlüsseln.

Kurzer Lebenslauf

Prof. Dr. Angelika Brandt wurde in Minden Westfalen geboren und studierte Biologie und Pädagogik an der Universität Oldenburg (MSc 1987, PhD 1992). 1995 wurde sie ordentliche Professorin an der Universität Hamburg am Zoologischen Museum und Kuratorin der Abteilung Wirbellose II (Krustentiere und Polychaeta). Seit 2003 war sie entweder stellvertretende Direktorin oder Direktorin (2004-2009) des Zoologischen Museums der Universität Hamburg. Angelika Brandt arbeitet an der Makrofauna der Tiefsee und der Polarregionen und hat an 29 Expeditionen teilgenommen. Sie beschäftigt sich mit Systematik, Biodiversität, Biogeographie, Evolution und Ökologie der Tiefsee-Isopoda (Crustacea, Malacostraca). Die Abteilung für Marine Zoologie und die Abteilung Krustentiere des Senckenberg-Forschungsinstituts und Naturmuseums wird seit April 2017 von Angelika Brandt geleitet, die seit ihrer Mitgliedschaft im Stiftungsausschuss des Deutschen Zentrums für marine Biodiversität in Wilhelmshaven und Hamburg (DZMB) mit Senckenberg-zusammenarbeitet. Ihre Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die Systematik, Ökologie und Evolution von perakariden Krebstieren mit Schwerpunkt auf Isopoda aus Tiefsee- und Polarlebensräumen. Im Rahmen der Volkszählung des Meeresorganismen (CoML) war sie an den Antarktis- und Tiefseefeldprojekten CAML (Vielfalt des Meereslebens in der Antarktis) und CeDAMar (Vielfalt des Meereslebens im Abyssal) beteiligt. Ihre Arbeit dokumentierte die hohe Artenvielfalt von Tiefsee-Wirbellosen im Südpolarmeer. In den letzten Jahren konzentrierte sich ihr Forschungsinteresse auf die Identifizierung von Evolutionstreibern in der Tiefsee wie Ausbreitungsbarrieren sowie auf die Weiterentwicklung der Methoden zur Probenahme in der Tiefsee. Sie ist in der Tiefseeforschung tätig (derzeit im Nordwestpazifik und im Südpolarmeer), interessiert sich aber auch für die Artenvielfalt der Weltmeere. Senckenberg hat auch einen starken traditionellen marinen Fokus auf das Rote und Arabische Meer sowie die Nordsee und die Ostsee Meer.

Prof. Dr. Andreas Mulch

The Mulch lab at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre and Goethe University Frankfurt uses state-of-the-art isotope geochemical approaches including novel applications of clumped isotope thermometry and molecular biomarker analysis to track changes in temperature and precipitation based on geologic materials such as paleosoils, fossil teeth or minerals in the Earth’s crust that store information about near surface meteoric waters in active deformation zones of our planet.

Collectively, these data permit reconstructions of the change in elevation of mountain belts through time and their role in guiding atmospheric moisture transport over continents or provide cornerstones in establishing the interactions of biotic and abiotic drivers of speciation and evolution in the highly diverse mountainous regions of e.g. the Andes and the Himalayas.

Research interests

  • Stable isotope paleoaltimetry
  • Interactions of mountains, climate and biodiversity
  • Paleoclimate reconstructions
