I am using a multidisciplinary, integrative approach to assess plant populations responses (local adaptation, range shift, and extinction) to environmental variation induced by historical (Quaternary) and modern-day (anthropogenic) climate change.

Key words : biodiversity, biogeography, climate change, evolution, paleoecology, plant ecology, population genetics & genomics, terrestrial ecology
