Fire isn’t always the villain. Some trees, like the giant sequoia, need fire to thrive. But climate change is throwing the cycle out of balance.

Let’s talk about the role of fire in forest health. 🔥🌲

#introduction

I'm a scientist interested in how academics can be most effective in #SciComm and #PublicEngagement.

I'm also a physical oceanographer and use the public's amazement, excitement and awe for the #ocean to support #climateliteracy in order to combat #plasticpollution and the #climatecrisis.

I'm a Fellow within the #OpenScience programme at Utrecht University and board member of #DeJongeAkademie (Young Academy) of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.
