Cristina Buenaño is a civil engineer and postdoctoral researcher specializing in urban ecology, biodiversity, and sustainable cities. Her research integrates geospatial analysis, citizen science, and ecological modeling to investigate how urban form influences biodiversity and ecosystem services. She earned her PhD from Universitat Jaume I (Spain), where she examined the ecological role of urban built environments across Europe and North America. Cristina is particularly interested in bridging engineering, ecology, and urban planning to support evidence-based strategies for more resilient and biodiversity-friendly cities. Her work has contributed to international research collaborations and focuses on translating scientific knowledge into practical solutions for urban sustainability.
