My specific research interests are focused in the development and study of species distribution models (in order to understand the patterns and processes that promote species distribution and diversity).
I’m also particularly interested in the study of biological invasions and their impacts on biodiversity. As general interests I include landscape ecology, cartography and the study of the impacts of global changes in biodiversity.
