Dr. Angela Pannek

Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin

The abundance of species on earth varies greatly – while some occur all over the place, others can only exist under very distinct conditions. My main research interests include macroecological patterns of vascular plants, trying to explain the reasoning between the temporal and spatial variation in commonness and rarity of species.
My PhD thesis focused on “Species responses along environmental gradients on different spatial scales”.

In addition, I am the membership administrator in the steering committee of the Young Scientist Section of the International Association for Vegetation Science (IAVS).
