Geerten has developed and re-used both toy-models, calibrated mechanistic models, integrated assessment modelling and data-driven models. Geerten’s experience with models is both from developer, model-user and project manager and he has been involved in developing and rolling out model governance and quality assurance at institutional level. Geerten is executive manager of the LTER-LIFE infrastructure. With LTER-LIFE Geerten wants to facilitate ecological researchers in addressing the full complexity of ecosystems across spatial and temporal scales and domain boundaries. This is done by creating virtual laboratories where researchers can combine data and models into digital twins.</p>
