TEACHING AND RESEARCH:

Since 2005, I have been working on different research projects and teaching activities at Castilla La Mancha University. I developed my doctoral thesis in Cuenca Mountains working on Spanish black pine (Pinus nigra Arn. ssp salzmannii) natural regeneration and sustainable forest management. I have also spent some years in different European and national universities and research centers as for example Edinburgh University, Instituto Superior de Agronomia de Lisboa, Tras-Os-Montes e Alto Douro University and Centro de Biología Aplicada del Segura. Now, I am currently involved on many different research and teaching activities at the School of Advanced Agricultural Engineering (Castilla La Mancha University), the Research Institute for Renewable Energy of Albacete (www. http://ier.uclm.es) and the National Open University (U.N.E.D.). My research and teaching interest are related to:


1. – Forest ecosystem management under the sustainability and multifunctionality forestry principles on the new context of climate change. Natural regeneration of forest species. Dendrocronology.
2. – The influence of Forest management over microbiological properties and enzymatic activities of forest soils. 
3. – The use of agro-forestry crops, forest biomass and forestry and agricultural wastes as renewable energy.
4. – Assessing water vapour and carbon fluxes in agricultural and forest areas of Castilla La Mancha
5. - Environmental assessment of renewable energy infrastructures and agro-forestry projects.
