Biography

Professor Grootjans studies the ecohydrology of wetlands, focusing on hydrological processes that preserve wet ecosystems such as moors, wet grasslands, and dune valleys. His research addresses the critical question of how changing land use and climate change affect these wetlands. His research efforts abroad include the preservation and restoration of natural moors, peat moors in Tierra del Fuego (southern Argentina), and groundwater-fed lime marshes in stream valley systems in Poland and Slovakia. Grootjans is actively engaged in knowledge networks related to nature management and dynamic coastal management.
