Biodiversity, Top predators, birds, Habitat selection, Feeding ecology

Biography

I am interested in the foraging and reproductive ecology of pelagic seabirds, terns, gulls and terrestrial passerines in order to contribute for their conservation and their use as bioindicators of environmental health. In the Lab "EcoTop - Ecology and Conservation of Top Predators" we use Conservation Physiology, Habitat Selection, Diet, Trophic and Movement Ecology to study the reprodutive and foraging ecology of top predators for biodiversity conservation and environmental management
