Professor
My research is focused on the effects of disturbances, climatic patterns and global change on growth and survival of trees. I use annual growth rings to assess the impact of climate variation and past management on temperate and Mediterranean forests in Europe and South America. I am also interested in reconstructing past fire regimes and evaluating the differential behaviour of the sexes in dioecious woody species.
