Welcome to my site!
My name is Jose and I am a forest researcher from Spain. Currently I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Vrije Universiteit (VU) Amsterdam in the Netherlands, leading a MSCA research project on lightning-caused fires. You can have a look at the website of this research project here.
I am interested in several forest research topics, mainly fire ecology, forest ecology, forest monitoring and biodiversity conservation. In my research I use methods such as lab and fieldwork, statistics and remote sensing. I try to conduct reproducible research. I also collaborate with researchers around the globe.
My research has focused mostly on forests of the Cantabrian Mountains, the Alps and the Mediterranean Basin. However, I am interested in other regions as well, for example North America, Siberia, Amazonia, Australia and Southern Africa.
