Leocadio Blanco Bercial

PeerJ Reviewer

Summary

Leo is a zooplankton ecologist, initially trained as a morphological taxonomist and ecologist. His research integrates molecular and classical (morphological/image) tools in order to address questions that cannot otherwise be resolved: plankton community diversity and its impact on present conditions and future changes in the ocean; connectivity of populations and its consequences for adaptation and evolution; and phylogenetic relationships within Copepoda, and their relationship to evolution, diversity and functionality.
