Spatial Ecology and Conservation Laboratory

About us

The Laboratory of Spatial Ecology and Conservation (LEEC) aims to incorporate explicitly the spatial arrangement of elements (individuals, species occurrence, types of environments, plant remnants) to understand patterns of biodiversity and guide conservation actions and restoration. We consider the fundamental importance handle multiple, and functional aspects of the ecosystem. We are interested in understanding since the organization of individuals and species until metacommunity, covering local, regional and continental scales.
