Juan Morales

Professor Juan Morales is a faculty member at the University of Glasgow, specializing in Statistical Ecology within the Department of Ecology & Environmental Change. His research focuses on quantitative ecology, ecological modeling, species interactions, and animal movement dynamics. Notable work includes studies on seed dispersal mechanisms, disease ecology, and the application of machine learning to understand animal behavior and habitat use. Morales has contributed to conservation efforts through investigations into invasive species impacts, fire ecology, and the effects of environmental variables on host-parasite systems. His interdisciplinary approach integrates mathematical modeling with field observations, addressing challenges in biodiversity maintenance and ecosystem resilience. Collaborations span institutions globally, reflecting his commitment to advancing ecological theory through empirical and computational methods.
