Biography
She is a graduate in Environmental Sciences (UB, 2006) and master in Remote Sensing and GIS (UAB, 2008). In 2008 she became part of CREAF as a technician in the Land cover Map of Catalonia (MCSC), performing photointerpretation tasks.In 2010 she joined J.Vayreda and J.Martínez-Vilalta team, where she is specialized on forest decline associated with global change, especially, drought die-off events. Some of our projects (e.g. DEBOSCAT and NVIBOSC) have direct applicability and are very useful for the forest management by Environment Agencies. Thus, they have had significant impact on the media. Since late 2013 they have been interested in ecosystem services and their valorization, a promising way to improve conservation and ecosystem management.
