I finished my studies in Environmental Sciences and my master’s degree in Oceanography. My interest in nature have made me take the step to start a PhD on biogeography and macroecology. I will try to explain the biodiversity distributions of our planet through the use of climate models, spatial data (GIS) and programming (RStudio).
