Our research areas

Biodiversity

We work with species and communities of plants and animals, approaching studies both from molecular scales and from the entire ecosystem.

Functioning of ecosystems

Each organism, each community and each ecosystem plays an important role in regulating the energy and nutrient cycles that keep the planet alive.

Global change

We analyze the impacts of global change on natural systems, assess their vulnerability and study the capacity for adaptation and mitigation.

Earth observation

Remote sensing and geographic information systems have made it possible to analyze the territory on very large scales and, at the same time, in detail.

We create networks internationally

CREAF collaborates internationally with highly prestigious organizations and networks such as the IPCC (Intergovernmental Group of Experts on Climate Change), the IPBES (Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services), the MEDECC (Experts on Climate Change in the Mediterranean) and the SER (Sociedad de Restauración Ecológica), among others. CREAF also coordinates the NEMOR (European Mountain Research Network). These collaborations allow us to guarantee that our research has a real impact on society, influencing public policies, various sectors and the way to manage nature for a more livable world.
