Marie-Jose Gaillard-Lemdahl

Research

I am a professor in botany-vegetation history/palaeoecology and work within/coordinate several projects on environmental-vegetation history over long time perspective. This research has applications within archeology and present environmental questions such as management of cultural landscapes, biodiversity, and climate development. I am also research coordinator for Environmental Science that includes seven research groups. These groups build up the Section of Environmental Science and Technology (EST).
