Pär Byström is a Professor at Umeå University, specializing in the interactions within freshwater ecosystems, particularly focusing on fish species effects, fishing, and climate change. His research primarily investigates size-dependent interactions in fish populations and communities, emphasizing how abiotic factors such as temperature and organic carbon concentrations impact biotic processes. He has significant expertise in the ecology of Northern lake ecosystems and employs molecular techniques to estimate fish abundance using environmental DNA (eDNA). Byström's work includes examining the effects of climate change on ecological dynamics in lakes and streams, as well as developing sustainable management strategies for fish populations. His research combines comparative field studies and experimental methods, contributing to a deeper understanding of how climate-induced changes affect aquatic food webs and fish production.
