Hans Baveco

Hans Baveco is an external researcher affiliated with Wageningen University, specializing in environmental risk assessment, ecological modeling, and wildlife management. His work focuses on understanding population dynamics of geese, pesticide impacts on aquatic organisms, and ecosystem services in agroecosystems.

• Expertise in individual-based models and spatial resource depletion
• Active in interdisciplinary collaborations across Europe
• Contributor to datasets on pest-predator interactions and climate adaptation

His research spans goose population dynamics, ecological modeling, and environmental risk assessment, often integrating computational simulations and empirical data. Recent studies examine the economic trade-offs of goose management and temperature-dependent toxicity in aquatic systems.

Key projects include modeling barnacle goose foraging behavior, analyzing pyrethroid pesticide risks in Belgium, and developing decision-support tools for crop protection. His work has been cited in 5+ publications and featured in 2023 news coverage about goose management inefficiencies in Friesland.
