PhD student at Sapienza University of Rome. My research focuses on wildlife adaptive responses to human disturbance. I misspel my names at conferences.

By modelling species detection as a function of spatial and temporal measures of human disturbance, we found temporal avoidance to be the prevailing short-term strategy in local species. Only one species did not show any response. You may ask, who could ever be that arrogant? 🐗

Wildlife hates noisy neighbors as much as I do!
Thrilled to announce my first paper, published online in GECCO! We explore how wildlife adjusts its short-term spatio-temporal niche to cope with human presence.

We conducted a year-long camera-trapping study on the mammalian community of a small private reserve in Italy. We also recorded the timing, location, and number of people involved in any sort of activity held in the study area, including me yelling at malfunctioning camera traps.
