My main academic interest is the understanding of the ecological role of humans in nature. In the last decades, my work has centered in the interactive role of changes in disturbance and spatial structure on plant community and population dynamics. To reach this goal, I collect and analyze long-term data, combined with short-term studies, field experiments and modeling.<\/p>\n

Modeling reintroductions of organisms with complex life histories –<\/strong> I am using mathematical modeling to evaluate scenarios of reintroductions that provide insight to questions of population establishment and persistence. Complex life cycles with varying transition periods cannot be modeled effectively by a single framework alone; instead, I am combinig continuous and discrete systems to form a semi-discrete dynamical system, to better capture life histories and predict reintroduction success more accurately.<\/span><\/p>\n
