We are two ecologists both specialized in interdisciplinary research and interested in modelling and network analysis.
Many many thanks to Uygar Özesmi for his support in developing the FCMapper and for great discussions on- and offline.

Martin is leading the GLOBAl 2000 (Friends of the Earth Austria) Sustainability Program in Vienna (for more information see: Link NHP). He has worked as researcher on the topic of socio-ecological system modeling at the Institute for Social Ecology in Vienna, and at the Austrian Environmental Agency on the topic of Long Term Socio-Ecological Research.

His main scientific interests and expertise are: the use and development of participative methods and models especially in the wide field of sustainability research. He also works on indicator development and sustainability assessment in applied projects. He believes that understanding the dynamics of socio-ecological systems requires new research methods, including new ways of communicating the results across disciplinary and cultural borders.
