Activity summary

I am a physical geographer and Geographical Information System (GIS) expert with a special focus on species’ distribution modelling, and on how its understanding can be informative in the context of conservation and spatial planning. Most of my research focuses on seabirds as indicators of global change using biologging devices and species distribution models to study animals' at-sea behaviour, movement and distribution.
