About

Maria Joao Santos is a Professor at the University of Zurich in Switzerland. Her research interests encompass the dynamics of moisture recycling in the Amazon, the impacts of biodiversity on ecosystem services, and water security in mountain regions. She has published extensively on topics such as urban transport choices related to sustainable development goals and the effects of tree cover on food security in tropical landscapes. Her work also addresses uncertainties in environmental measurements and the vulnerability of livelihoods in relation to human-wildlife interactions.
