Mauro Fois focuses his studies on the distribution, conservation and restoration possibilities of Mediterranean habitats and species. He is especially interested in island endemic and endangered plants and other interacting species, and which biotic/abiotic factors facilitate or threaten their presence. His most relevant research and professional experiences are related to:
· Biodiversity and biogeography of Mediterranean biodiversity
· Insular ecosystems as models to identify the future global consequences of climate change and species invasions
· Monitoring of wetland biodiversity
· Human impacts, conservation and management in Mediterranean islands
· Species co-occurrence and interactions
