RESEARCH FOCUS:
ECOLOGY, EVOLUTION AND CONSERVATION IN DISTURBED ECOSYSTEMS
Our lab mainly focuses on the ecology, evolution and conservation in ecosystems subject to disturbance, either natural or anthropogenic. The work is divided into three themes:
- Landscape fragmentation effects on biodiversity
(disturbance: anthropogenic) - Biogeography, ecology and conservation of savannas
(disturbance: fire, herbivory, drought) - Ecology and evolution of plant defences against mammals
(disturbance: herbivory)
