I study the aquatic systems of high mountain. My focus is on ecology of the high mountain lakes, particularly the zooplankton species ensemble both their evolutionary history and environmental determinism. Also, I like to learn about the rivers ecological processes, because I have a background with research of water quality in neotropical rives from a viewpoint ecological through aquatic macro invertebrate.

PROJECTS

The project proposes to study biodiversity resilience by tracking changes in lake communitycomposition over the last ca. 2.000 years in four Pyrenean lakes with contrasting history of stressors pressure.
This Life project, coordinated by the CEAB-CSIC, aims to recover mountain aquatic habitats by improving the conservation of various habitats/target species in four locations in the Natura 2000 network in the alpine biogeographic regions of the Pyrenees and the Alps.
