ABOUT ME
I am Ana M. C. Santos (a.k.a. Guida Santos), a Ramón y Cajal research fellow working at the Dep. Ecología, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Madrid (Spain). I have broad interests in island biogeography, community ecology, ecosystem functioning and entomology.
I study the factors and processes causing community assembly on different regions, but I have focused most of my work on island faunas.
I am also interested on the spatial variation in community structure of different taxa, looking at taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity at different scales. My most recent research line focuses on the impact of global change on diversity and ecosystem functioning.

We evaluated the posible consequences of future extinctions of island mammals, on communities functional space. We found that the extinction of threatened mammalswould...
We have finished the first round of laboratory mesocosm experiments, in which we used two temperature treatments and different combination of species. These will be...
DUNGPOOL
Dung beetles (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea) perform a wide range of ecosystem functions and services, being key to ecosystem productivity and consequently having major economic impacts. DUNGPOOL is a research project focused on evaluating the effect of the species pool, community assembly processes, and increasing temperatures on the local diversity and ecosystem functions performed by dung beetles in cattle-grazed pasturelands.
