I am fascinated by Arctic ecology and using my model species the Barnacle Goose to study a whole ecosystem from nutrient cycling and microbes to predators and bird migration. Most of my information can be easily found on the web, either by exploring my field work and environment at http://www.arcticstation.nl or by visiting my personal webpage http://www.maartenloonen.nl A full list of publications can be found at http://www.maartenloonen.nl/publicaties
