Activity summary

I am a spatial ecologist and GIS expert. My interests include the spatial modelling of species distributions and human activities, with focus on seabirds inhabiting coastal and marine environments. During the last years, I gained diverse field and advanced analytical expertise on biologging, ecosystem modelling and spatial statistics. Overall, the main goal of my research is to guide conservation strategy and assist the development of ecosystem-based approaches to marine spatial planning.
