Suzanne conducts the majority of her research in tropical regions. During her PhD, she studied hydrological and biogeochemical processes in catchments under contrasting land use Mau Forest Complex in Kenya. She is particularly interested in the relation between land use and the provisioning of water-related ecosystem services. Her experience lies in the use of field-based methods to understand hydro-biogeochemical processes, ranging from low-cost and citizen science-based methods to high-resolution data collection with in situ instruments. She currently applies these methods in research projects in Africa and Latin America, as well as in Germany.
