I am associate professor in urban and regional planning at IGN and member of the research groups Spatial Change and Planning and GIScience and Geodesign.

Research and teaching topics include spatial planning, sustainable urban development, resource and energy efficient cities, land use change, urban sprawl, functional regions, small towns, spatial analysis, digital planning.

I am always interested in good ideas for research and/or teaching collaborations. I am and have been involved in several national and international projects, including

• Regions4Climate (EU Horizon, 2023-2026)
• Sustainable urban densification (Realdania, 2022-2023)
• Small and medium-sized towns in Denmark (EU ESPON TOWN DK, 2022)
• Evaluating Spatial Planning Practices with Digital Plan Data (EU ESPON DIGIPLAN, 2020-2021)
• Urban metabolism and waste behaviour in touristic cities (EU-H2020 URBAN WASTE, 2016-2019)
• Regional strategies for sustainable and inclusive development (EU ESPON ReSSI,  2016-2017)
• Planning for smart and energy efficient cities (EU-FP7 PLEEC, 2013-2016)
• Challenges and prospects of Danish small towns (Realdania, 2012-2013)
• Land use scenarios for Greater Copenhagen (Centre for Strategic Urban Research, 2011).
• Peri-urban land use relationships (EU-FP6 PLUREL, 2007-2011)

I am currently co-supervising two PhD students: Mette Juhl Jessen working with climate adaptation and regional planning, and Junyu Hu working with e-biking in urban and rural areas. Previously I have co-supervised Tongyun Du working with social networks during urban renewal (finished 2021), Liang Xiao working with agriculture and migration in Southwest China (guest PhD 2019-2020), Lu Sun working with Bejing's green belts (paused) and Juliane Große working with travel behaviour and urban structure (finished in 2017).

I teach in several courses in the Landscape Architecture programme, primarily in "Byplan Studio" (Urban Planning Studio) with Gertrud Jørgensen, Lise Herslund, Trine Carstensen, Helle Tegner Anker and more. In research and teaching I enjoy collaborating with several good colleagues from different research groups and sections within IGN.

Feel free to contact me. I speak English, German and Danish. You can also find me on LinkedIn and ResearchGate or pass by my blog on landblend.wordpress.com (which is not that often updated anymore as it once was).
