Summary
I am a 65 year old fisheries ecologist and have for the last 40 years been working on multispecies modelling of commercially exploited fish stocks, fish stock interactions, ecosystem effects of fishing on fish and benthos communities, size based models of fish communities, fish life history and marine biodiversity. I chaired the first ICES Study Group on Ecosystem Effects of Fishing Activities, co-convened the Symposium on Ecosystem Effects of Fishing, and gave the Open lecture on Fish Biodiversity at the 2015 ICES Annual Science Conference. I have published ~50 peer reviewed papers over the last 20 years. In addition I have been head of the Danish Network on Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Fishnet), and participated in many EU and national funded projects. I particularly like to work on projects that improve the possibilities for providing relevant advice on the consequences of fishing on marine ecosystems. Most recently I have studied the response of benthic quality indicators to bottom trawling, and tried to understand the drivers affecting the distribution of fish species richness in the Atlantic
