I am a physical geographer and GIS expert with a special focus on species distribution modelling, and on how its understanding can be informative in the context of conservation and spatial planning. I completed my PhD in Ecology in 2022 by the University of Coimbra (Portugal), with co-supervision of the University of Exeter (UK), after graduating in Physical Geography in 2014 and achieving my master degree in Geographical Information Technologies in 2016 by the University of Coimbra. The vast majority of my research work focuses on seabirds as indicators of global change. My research has spanned a number of topics from the effects of intrinsic factors (e.g. sex, personality, and individual-level specialisations independent of these factors) of seabirds' at-sea behaviour, to fisheries bycatch, climate change impacts, marine conservation, and animal tracking. Recently, I am developing these topics further, expanding reach to consider extreme climatic events, cover ecosystems, span disciplines (e.g. physiology), and to take a more global perspective. To date, I have published a total of 29 ISI papers and 2 book chapters, which attracted a total of 372 citations, and a h-index= 13. Several works were published in major multidisciplinary scientific journals like Nature Communications, Current Biology, Journal of Applied Ecology, Frontiers in Marine Science, Science of Total Environment, Journal of Experimental Biology, and Oecologia (2 papers). This broadening of my research career has necessitated more diverse collaborations and internationalisation of seabird conservation (84% of papers co-authored with researchers from other countries). From all publications, 92% were published in Q1 journals and 33% as first author. Since 2022 (PhD completion), I have participated in 1 project with national funding as Principal Investigator (4 K€), and as team member of 3 other projects with EU Next Generation, Interreg and LIFE funding (global funding > 4 M€). I also supervised 1 undergraduate student, 3 MSc students, and lecture classes on GIS and Spatial Modelling to master courses at the University of Coimbra. I serve as a Guest Associate Editor for Frontiers in Marine Science and Diversity, and I am a regular reviewer for several ecological and marine journals. I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Coimbra, investigating how extreme environmental events affect seabirds' foraging behaviour, energetics, physiology, and reproductive traits.
