Terhi Ala-Hulkko

I am a geographer with research interests in ecosystem services and human-nature relationships across spatial scales. I use Geographic Information System (GIS)-based accessibility analysis to explore people's ability to use different ecosystem services and to estimate the negative impacts that ecosystems can cause to people. My current research focuses on understanding how people access and use different types of ecosystem services in urban environments, and how people can reach these sites using sustainable transport modes.

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Aalto University. In addition to my research, I am a teacher for the QGIS online course.
