Who we are > Internal collaborator

Sofía is a biologist (from National University of Colombia) and holds a PhD in environmental management from the University of Queensland. Her research interests are focused on assessing the trade-offs between agricultural production and biodiversity conservation using ecosystem services. By integrating benefit-cost data with systematic conservation planning she has explored how to prioritise the maintenance of ecosystem services at different scales (i.e., local – pollination, national – carbon sequestration and water supply) in agricultural landscapes. The main outcome is to provide a framework to support policy-makers and spatial planners.
