Luis Francisco Bustamante, Ph.D.

As a plant physiology and plant ecological physiology researcher my major interest in science is the analysis of natural resources fluxes and their interaction with plants and their physiological behavior in natural and controlled environments (e.g.: fruit production orchards) and how those plants can leave a footprint measurable in the atmospheric boundary layer (for example trough eddy-covariance or remote sensing) that can be related with plant ecological-physiological processes that can represent a tool to model and predict the health and status of endangered natural ecosystems or resource sensitive ecosystems.
