Research Interests
Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in freshwaters: investigate the causes of biodiversity change due to anthropogenic and hydroclimatic pressures. Attention has been paid to the integration of tools and techniques from biodiversity science, community ecology, remote sensing to develop innovative approaches that can help in the planning of conservation and restoration programs and to support policies that mitigate the impacts of the biodiversity crisis.
