Micael Jonsson is an Associate Professor at the Department of Ecology and Environmental Science, Umeå University, Sweden. His research focuses on understanding how environmental changes and human activities influence species composition in ecological communities, and the subsequent impacts on ecosystem functioning and services. His work spans aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, including boreal forests, streams, and riparian zones.
Research interests include biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships, pharmaceutical contaminant effects on aquatic organisms, and the role of species interactions in maintaining ecosystem resilience. He employs innovative methods like UAV-based monitoring and deep learning to study ant mound distributions and ecological impacts.
Key areas of investigation include decomposition processes, contaminant transfer via insects, and the behavioral effects of pharmaceuticals on fish. His studies often integrate field experiments with controlled laboratory trials to assess ecological and physiological responses. He collaborates on large-scale projects such as the FreshLanDiv database and RIPARIANET initiative to prioritize ecologically critical riparian zones.
Publications highlight advancements in understanding PFAS contamination, bubble barrier technology for fish guidance, and the interplay between forest management and ecosystem services. His work contributes to sustainable resource management strategies and conservation practices in boreal and subarctic ecosystems.
