INTHERIA: data integration for mammal monitoring at
large-scales
Project funded by the Regional Government of Castile-La Mancha (Talent
Return and Retention Program), its main objective is to optimize the
design of large-scale multispecies mammal monitoring programs. As
principal investigator, I’m using optimization techniques for sampling
sites selection as well as hierarchical modeling through Bayesian
inference to integrate different data sources for mammal monitoring at
national scales (hunting yields, camera trap data, etc.).
Life Iberconejo
Project co-financed by the European Commission’s LIFE programme, its
main aim is to analyse the state of rabbit populations in the Iberian
Peninsula, their health status and the damage they cause to agriculture.
As an external consultant, I’m involved in population monitoring and
abundance modeling by combining different data sources such as distance
sampling or kilometric abundance indexes. More info at the Iberconejo project
dedicated website.
rWind R package
Tools for download and manage surface wind and sea currents data from
the Global
Forecasting System and to compute connectivity between locations.

download, edit and include wind data in ecological and evolutionary
analysis. Main author, creator and maintainer. License: GPL (≥ 3).
abmR R package
Supplies tools for running agent-based models (ABM) in R. The package
contains two movement functions, each of which is based on the
Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) model. It also contains several visualization
and data summarization functions to facilitate the presentation of
simulation results. More info at the dedicated publication in Methods in
Ecology and Evolution: abmR:
An R package for agent-based model analysis of large-scale movements
across taxa. Author. License: GPL (≥ 3).
