Biography

Martina Ilarri is a Researcher at the Benthic ecology and environmental solutions lab, CIIMAR-UP. Her main research interests focus on studying the changes (taxonomical and functional diversity) associated with the introduction of invasive aquatic species at different ecological levels (populations, communities and ecosystems). In addition, she focuses on understanding changes in the functioning of aquatic communities due to the impacts of climate change and extreme weather events.
