My research line lies on biogeography and macroecology and my main motivation is focused on conservation. My interests include: the detection of changes in biodiversity patterns according to forecasted climate and land uses; the identification of life-history traits that could help species to cope with global change; and the incorporation of intraspecific variability of morphological and evolutionary values of different populations in order to understand their limitations under global change. I have experience in detecting the degree of overlapping between natural protected areas and important areas for biodiversity, and in the use of concepts of fuzzy logic in conservation biogeography.
