My firstname is Nasrin and I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, and study in niche, habitat suitability, and distribution modeling, mainly at the level of species, but also of biodiversity, communities and ecosystems. My projects focus on spatial prediction of essential biodiversity variables (EBVs) for bird species in The Western Swiss Alps that driving the distribution of species and their assemblages, or on more applied aspects, such as climate and land-use changes, and rare and threatened species management.
