Marco Colossi Brustolin

I am a biological oceanographer graduated at Federal University of Paraná, Brazil (UFPR). Over the past few years I have worked with experimental and descriptive ecology of subtropical and tropical benthic communities of coastal ecosystems, investigating the patterns of variation in diversity and composition of microscopic invertebrates over multiple spatiotemporal scales. Some questions that motivate my work are: How landscape attributes influences species distribution? What are the main drivers of metacommunity assembly? How climate change and human activities affect marine biodiversity? (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
