Research interests:
- Island biogeography and ecology, especially focusing on the endemic plant species of La Palma (Canary Islands)
- Global treeline patterns with a particular (but not exclusive) focus on islands
- Biogeography and ecology of high-elevation ecosystems on oceanic islands and how disturbances shape these systems (e.g. introduced herbivores, fire, etc.)
- Spatial and ecological distribution of endemic and insular species and the possible effects of climate change on this distribution
- Primary succession on lava flows
- Global and macroecological patterns of all sort mainly revolving around diversity, rarity, endemism and invasion
