Leticia San Emeterio

Leticia San Emeterio studied Biology at the University of the Valley of Guatemala and graduated and get her PhD in Biological Sciences at the University of Navarra, Spain. Currently she is a researcher at the Ecology and Environment Group in the Public University of Navarre. Her main research interests are herbivore-plant-soil relationships in grasslands ecosystems and the role of fire ang grazing perturbation regime on their modulation. She improved her background as a botanist with soil microbiology and plant competition modelling expertise in the Laboratory of Soil Microbiology from the University of California, Berkely and in the Environmental Research Institute from Silkeborg.
