Aitor Gastón González

Doctor, Degree in Environmental Sciences and Technical Forestry Engineer from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, he is currently a Laboratory Technician in Forestry Botany at the EUIT Forestal (UPM).

He started researching flora, vegetation cartography and plant corology in the Iberian Peninsula. His current research focuses on predictive models of species distribution and habitat selection.
