She has a PhD in Earth Sciences from the Complutense University of Madrid (2021) and specialises in the application of Geographic Information Systems for mapping vulnerable marine ecosystems and conservation tools. Her research focuses on the dynamics of benthic habitats on the Mediterranean continental shelf and assesses the relationship between environmental variables and threatened or endemic habitats, such as reefs protected by the Habitats Directive. She has over 15 years' experience in geography and oceanography and has participated in 16 oceanographic and environmental projects, primarily promoted by the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO-CSIC). She has also collaborated with the Geological and Mining Institute and the Secretariat of the Sea. She has contributed to 32 scientific and technical publications and presented at national and international conferences. As an expert in ocean observation, she has participated in seabed study surveys, integrating remote sensing data and direct observations using specialised software. She has worked on European projects such as EMODnet, MeshAtlantic and EUSEAMAP, promoting scientific collaboration networks. She currently coordinates marine mapping activities within the framework of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, providing advice on marine biodiversity in protected areas under state jurisdiction.
