Students

Current PhD Students.

• Xavier Serra-Maluquer evaluates how functional diversity may buffer growth resilience in response to drought  (co-supervised with Dr. A. Gazol).

• Cristina Valeriano aims to model radial growth as a function of climate to investigate tree-ring related patterns (bimodal growth, dieback, xylogenesis).

Former PhD Students.

• Jorge Albuixech studied the relationships between growth and masting in Mediterranean oak species (co-supervised with Dr. Gabriel Montserrat-Martí).

• Arben Q. Alla worked on primary and secondary growth in Mediterranean oak species (co-supervised with Dr. Gabriel Montserrat-Martí).

• Edmond Pasho quantified the effects of drought on vegetation activity and radial growth (co-supervised with Dr. Sergio Vicente-Serrano).

• J. Diego Galván analyzed how climate change affects growth in Pinus uncinata high-elevation forests and how this affects tree-ring proxies (co-supervised with Prof. Emilia Gutiérrez).

• Gabriel Sangüesa Barreda studied how biotic stressors (mistletoe, defoliators, beetles) drive tree growth and function (co-supervised with Dr. J. Carlos Linares).

• Hooz Angela Mendivelso analyzed growth dynamics and demography in a tropical dry forest (co-supervised with Dr. Pieter Zuidema).

• Laura Marqués combined tree-ring with forest historical data to understand how land-use and climate changes drive forest dynamics (co-supervised with Dr. M.A. Zavala).
