My research is mainly focus in plant community ecology in tropical alpine environments particularly in vegetation structure in treeline ecotone and paramo ecosystem, positive and negative plant-plant interactions and ecophysiology responses of plant species to abiotic stress and biotic interactions.
My PhD project is focus in ecosystem engineering at tropical treeline and how water availability and facilitation influence the establishment dynamics of tree species at Andean treelines, specifically in my home country Venezuela.
