Research interests
I am a researcher interested in the use of camera traps for wildlife conservation and monitoring. I am especially focused on the use of camera traps as a non-invasive methodology to estimate population abundance. I also use camera traps to monitor animal movement and behaviour, nest predation, disease spread, demographic parameters as well as other methodological works about camera trap performance and survey design.
