Enrique is interested in understanding how human activities can affect bryophytes diversity in boreal and tropical ecosystems. After his studies at the Universidad de la Sierra Juárez (BSc) and the Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo (MSc) in Mexico, he started his Ph.D. at the Université du Québec en Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Canada. His current research project consists to evaluate the effect of boreal forest fragmentation on bryophyte diversity.

Projet de recherche : Landscape effects on bryophyte biodiversity

Landscape effects on bryophyte biodiversity. This project pretend to understand how the boreal forest fragmentation offerts the biodiversity of bryophytes in differents scales. First we are going to explore how the communities of these plants are affected by the landscape configuration created by the forest management. After this we pretend to identify some species which let us to know which is the forest fragmentation effects in their populations to molecular level.
