Overview

Guadalupe Williams-Linera is affiliated with the Instituto de Ecología in Mexico and conducts research primarily in environmental science and agricultural and biological sciences. Their work spans several subfields including nature and landscape conservation, global and planetary change, ecology, evolution, behavior and systematics, plant science, and ecological modeling.

Their research topics cover a diverse range of areas in ecology and vegetation dynamics studies, forest ecology and management, plant water relations and carbon dynamics, plant and animal studies, forest management and policy, effects of fire on ecosystems, and conservation, biodiversity, and resource management.

Williams-Linera has published multiple papers, with notable recent works including:

  • Evaluating ecosystem service trade-offs along a land-use intensification gradient in central Veracruz, Mexico (2020) in Ecosystem Services
  • Biodiversity and carbon storage are correlated along a land use intensity gradient in a tropical montane forest watershed, Mexico (2020) in Basic and Applied Ecology
  • Litterfall, vegetation structure and tree composition as indicators of functional recovery in passive and active tropical cloud forest restoration (2021) in Forest Ecology and Management
  • Leaf functional traits predict shade tolerant tree performance in cloud forest restoration plantings (2022) in Journal of Applied Ecology
  • Landscape-scale forest cover drives the predictability of forest regeneration across the Neotropics (2023) in Proceedings of the Royal Society B Biological Sciences

Their frequent collaborators include Milton H. Díaz-Toribio, Javier Tolome, Daniel M. Griffith, Jorge A. Meave, and Z. Carter Berry.

Williams-Linera's research is often published in journals such as the Journal of Tropical Ecology, Ecosystem Services, Basic and Applied Ecology, Forest Ecology and Management, and the Journal of Applied Ecology.
