Francesco Boscutti
Summary
Francesco Boscutti does research in Plant Science, focusing on Plant Ecology and Applied Botany. His main research projects focus on the ecological processes that drive plant responses to global changes. Studies and experiments investigate both terrestrial and coastal ecosystems using a functional and multiple-scale approach from individual to ecosystem and landscape scales. Main attention is paid to studies on plant responses to drought, ecological gradients (e.g. alpine and coastal), biological invasion and restoration and agro-ecology. Skills in the processing of biological data both for analysis (biostatistics - R software) and for data management and storage (database), management of spatial data in GIS systems.
