Activities
My research is at the interface between biological oceanography and coastal ecology. I focus on the role of mesoscale and small-scale physical as drivers of spatial-temporal patterns of larval settlement and population renewal in coastal species of benthic invertebrates.
In addition to this field-oriented aspect of my work, I am involved in the analysis, modeling, and synthesis of oceanographic time series data collected over the past 7 years by the COPAS Center (UdeC) at a station located 20 nm off the coast of Concepcion.
