Niklas Wickander

Master student

My work was investigating the impact of spatial variation in soil temperature on the ecology and evolution of the perennial herb Bistorta vivipara in a geothermal area in Iceland. I graduated in 2017 and my thesis was published in Oikos in 2020. I am currently doing a PhD at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) in Ecology of plant-soil interactions in subtropical grasslands. The PhD is part of a larger project called EthiopiaGrass (https://www.nibio.no/en/projects/ethiopiagrass).
