Welcome
I am a biologist trained in the fields of plant ecology and plant-herbivore interactions. My principal interest is the study of foodwebs in various kinds of human-modified environments. Other subject of interest is the background insect herbivory, and its effect on plant performance at local/global scales under recent climate changes. I am also broadly interested in novel ways to describe behavioral syndromes in small mammals. During my previous research I have studied the predictability of plant traits to explain plant responses upon various managements and the biotic mechanims beyond the diversity-production relationships.
