About the Author
Moriz Steiner is a graduate student and former teaching assistant for behavioral ecology at Wageningen University and Research (Netherlands) in the field of Animal Science. He has conducted several research internships in Institutions such as the Max-Planck-Institute (MPI) for plant breeding research (Germany), MPI for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems (Germany), Alfred-Wegener Institute (AWI) for Polar and Marine Research (Germany), Fondazione Edmund Mach (Forest Ecology and biogeochemical cycles - Italy) and EWHALE lab (Institute of Alaska Fairbanks UAF -Institute of Arctic Biology). Additional 9 months of remote work on an alpine farm have passioned Moriz to work towards a more sustainable future living and to conserve nature. His most recently published squirrel taxonomy papers have stimulated him to conduct further research in this field. The author shows a strong personal interest in Ecology and Conservation Management in the Polar Regions as well as the use of modern software technology for an increased conservation success of nature to preserve it for future generations.
