PhD in Biology (University of Valencia, 2007). He did his doctoral thesis at the desertification research center, on restoration of vegetation on road slopes, studying the importance of species selection and appropriate techniques for restoration adapted to the conditions of road slopes in Mediterranean environments. For two years he worked at the CEAM foundation studying the regeneration of vegetation after forest fires, studying the effect of fire on regeneration by seeds and the role of reserve carbohydrates in post-fire regrowth. Subsequently, he worked for 3 years at the University of Alicante as a beneficiary of a Juan de la Cierva contract. During this period he studied the regeneration of woody species in semiarid areas of the Southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. Studying the role of vegetation patches and the relationship of germination with water stress.
In the following years (18 months) he worked in the Netherlands in Eurosite a network of European nature conservation entities and later 6 months in a company of geographic information systems for agriculture.
Since September 2016 he works as a lecturer at the University of Zaragoza. At first, he focused his research on the influence of new landscape reconstruction methods (Geomorphological restoration) on water availability for plants and its influence on seed ecology in mining.
Currently he works on two research lines: (1) Seed ecology, studying the relationship between soil water and seed imbibition and germination, and (2) Impacts of solar parks on ecosystems and its mitigation.
Throughout his career, he has worked in fields as different as road slope restoration, fire ecology, ecology of arid environments and mine restoration, but always guided by the common thread of plant regeneration as a function of abiotic factors and the application of this knowledge to the restoration or management of ecosystems.
He has participated in several research projects (regional, national and European), in one of them as principal investigator and in 8 transfer contracts with companies, three of them as principal investigator. During this period he has published articles and book chapters (27 SCI and 3 non-SCI) and disseminated his work in national and international conferences.
