Overview

Marcelo Cabido is affiliated with the National Scientific and Technical Research Council in Argentina. Their research primarily spans the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences and Environmental Science, contributing to an extensive body of work within these disciplines.

The scientist's publications focus significantly on subfields such as Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, Nature and Landscape Conservation, Global and Planetary Change, Plant Science, and Forestry. Within these areas, their research has addressed themes including Ecology and Vegetation Dynamics Studies, Plant Taxonomy and Phylogenetics, Agroforestry and silvopastoral systems, Plant Diversity and Evolution, Fire effects on ecosystems, Botany, Ecology, and Taxonomy Studies, and Plant and animal studies.

Marcelo Cabido has frequently published in journals and venues such as Vegetation Classification and Survey, Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica, Ecología Austral, Applied Vegetation Science, and SSRN Electronic Journal.

Notable recent papers include:

  • Flora vascular de las montañas de Córdoba (Argentina): características y distribución de las especies a través del gradiente altitudinal, 2021, Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica
  • The lowland seasonally dry subtropical forests in central Argentina: vegetation types and a call for conservation, 2020, Vegetation Classification and Survey
  • La vegetación de las montañas de Córdoba (Argentina) a comienzos del siglo XXI: un mapa base para el ordenamiento territorial., 2022, Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica
  • Vegetation types of the Arid Chaco in Central-Western Argentina, 2023, Vegetation Classification and Survey
  • Floristic patterns of the neotropical forests, savannas and scrublands with Trithrinax campestris (Arecaceae) in central Argentina, 2021, Vegetation Classification and Survey

Throughout Cabido's career, collaboration with several frequent coauthors has been significant. These include Melisa A. Giorgis, Ana M. Cingolani, Sebastián R. Zeballos, Juan José Cantero, and Alicia Teresa Rosario Acosta.
