Biography
Research Group: Forest Ecology and Conservation
Former Research Group: Ecosystems and Global Change
My research explores the recovery of forest ecosystems after anthropogenic impacts. I am currently leading a network of researchers worldwide investigating the long-term recovery trajectories of crucial biotic interactions in post-agricultural forests. My ultimate goal is to contribute to restoration science and practice, so that restorations actions overcome their current limitations to get completely recovered ecosystems, resilient to global change.
