I am a Post-doc researcher at the Biodiversity and Landscape Ecology Lab (InForest Research Unit CEMFOR-CTFC, Spain). I am currently working at UQAM Université du Québec à Montréal -Département des sciences biologiques- Centre d’étude de la Forêt (CEF), in Canada, under the supervision of Pr. Dr. Pierre Drapeau.
My current research is aimed at: a) unravelling the interacting (antagonic, additive and synergistic) effects of multiple stressors on biodiversity (at both species and community level) in Mediterranean and Boreal ecosystems using spatially-explicit landscape simulation models, remote sensing, species distribution models, ecological indicators and large datasets; b) assessing and forecasting the impacts of global change drivers (mainly human-altered fire regimes, land-use change and climate change) on biodiversity and ecosystem services under a wide range of socio-ecological scenarios using novel and integrative approaches; and, c) monitoring the effectinevess and efficiency of protected area networks in conserving biodiversity and their habitats using remote sensing data and spatial conservation prioritization tools. I am also interested on cost–benefits evaluations of forest and fire management, and conservation actions.
I use many research tools including field surveys, statistical modelling, computer simulation, remote sensing, spatial analysis and geographic information systems.
