Projects
The projects collected here document my work at the intersection of maritime systems, citizen science, and research coordination. They range from technical and methodological development to conceptual tools supporting collaboration and participation.
Each project focuses on concrete work, decisions, and learnings. Taken together, they show how I approach research work: with an emphasis on process, transparency, and long-term usefulness.
PelAtlas
Building a scalable, ML-assisted workflow for marine mammal photo-ID and capture–recapture studies, combining retrieval-based re-identification with human verification and active learning.
Otolith-based age determination for Baltic cod
A research project on machine learning–supported age determination of Baltic cod from otolith microscopy images. The work focuses on data consolidation, quality assessment, and the development of supervised models to support expert-based age reading.
Reflection tools for participatory research
Developing a set of reflection cards and minimalist posters to support structured conversations about participation, roles, and decision-making in research projects.
Species identification in sonar data using simulation-informed modeling
Investigating how environmental data and simulation-based priors can support species classification in fisheries sonar data, with a focus on sprat and herring in the Baltic Sea.
Dormant Concepts
Low-cost CTD sensor using OpenCTD and OSBK
Developing a low-cost CTD sensor based on OpenCTD and the SOOP Open Source Building Kit to lower barriers to marine data collection and enable citizen science deployments.
Smoke on the Water
Exploring links between wildfire smoke and marine habitats by integrating atmospheric and oceanographic data, with a focus on transparent analysis and environmental communication.
