Hans Henrik Bruun
Professor
Ecology and Evolution
Universitetsparken 15
2100 København Ø
Researches and teaches ecology and biodiversity, with special focus on community assembly, with a preference for plants and their associated biota of insects and fungi, and on evidence-based nature conservation.
Primary fields of research
Community assembly and species richness
-
environmental control (productivity, disturbance) vs. neutral effects
-
species pools and the niche
-
diversity-invasibility relationships
-
diversity-productivity relationships
-
community phylogenetics
-
Vegetation ecology of temperate, alpine and arctic plant communities
Population ecology
-
Regional (source-sink dynamics, metapopulations, remnant populations, range margins)
-
Local (vegetative and sexual recruitment, longevity)
-
Reproductive biology
-
Seed dispersal, especially by mammal endozoochory
Evolutionary ecology
-
allometry of seed size and seed number per individual
-
habitat specialization
-
niche conservatism
Landscape ecology
-
Influence of land-use history on species richness, distribution and genetic diversity of populations
Conservation / restoration
-
Conservation and restoration of temperate vegetation, especially grasslands
-
Invasive plant species (mainly Rosa rugosa)
