Timi Løvholt Banke

Timi Løvholt Banke is a Researcher at the Department of Biology, University of Southern Denmark, specializing in marine ecology and seagrass restoration. Their work focuses on mitigating coastal eutrophication through ecological interventions like eelgrass (Zostera marina) transplantation and habitat restoration.

• Collaborations: Frequent collaborations with institutions like DTU Aqua and Center for Marin Naturgenopretning
• Key Research Themes: Eelgrass physiology, stressor thresholds, site selection for restoration, and coastal ecosystem recovery

Recent research explores irradiance compensation depths and lugworm (Arenicola marina) density thresholds for sustainable eelgrass restoration. Their publications include peer-reviewed articles in Frontiers in Marine Science and Restoration Ecology, as well as practical guidelines for marine restoration projects.

Dr. Banke actively engages with stakeholders through presentations at events like the Danish Marine Research Meeting and contributes to public outreach via media appearances discussing marine conservation strategies.
