Research Interest
Research focused on spatial predictive modelling of plant and animal distributions, and the communities they form (see Guisan & Zimmermann 2000, Guisan et al. 2002, Guisan & Thuiller 2005, Guisan et al. 2006, Araujo & Guisan 2006, Guisan & Rahbek 2011, Guisan et al. 2013, Guisan et al. 2014 in the "Publications" page of my group). Besides theoretical and methodological interests in understanding and predicting species distributions, my group is developing models for various applied purposes, such as rare species management, assessing the potential impact of climate change on biodiversity, and anticipating biological invasions. Our lab is also affiliated to the "Laboratory for Conservation Biology" of the University of Lausanne.
