Biography

Camino Fernández de la Hoz is a PhD in coastal engineering, hydrobiology and management of aquatic systems in the University of Cantabria. She has developed her PhD in the effects of climate change over macroalgae communities in Europe, granted by the Spanish Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness (Ref: BES-2016-076434). She works with large physical and biological databases, advanced statistical analysis, biological experimentation and species distribution models. Her research works span a broad range of topics including the definition of climatic typologies or the assessments of the consequences of climate change on coastal areas.

RESEARCH LINES
