Dr Vladimir Krivtsov, Research Associate Ecosystem Services
Vladimir has a diverse academic and professional background in natural sciences. His main interest is in understanding indirect interactions in ecological and environmental systems.
Vladimir's ecological studies have encompassed a wide range of biological organisms, including plants and fungi. He has been collaborating with RBGE since 2000, and his current research with Heriot Watt University is examining the biodiversity benefits of blue-green infrastructure.
