Introduction
I was born in 1977 and I obtained my PhD in 2011 at the University of Bremen, Germany. My experience in territorial ordinance and community aquaculture and environmental indicators for fisheries management in marine areas, has led me to develop and test methodologies on holistic management in coastal areas like the Gulf of California and the Caribbean. After a brief postdoctoral fellowship in the Institute EPOMEX, I joined in 2011 as a researcher at ECOSUR in Villahermosa and Campeche.

Article
Sustainable fisheries take into consideration that managed fisheries ecosystems shift over time in response to evolving environmental as well as market and political factors. These contextual forces are especially valuable in understanding developing countries such as Mexico, where the unconsolidated fisheries administration faces productive marine...

We developed a transdisciplinary modeling approach for the Huave Lagoon System (HLS), Mexico. This lagoon was selected because it has been used sustainably in various complimentary ways by different ethnic groups since pre-Hispanic times. Over the last few years, however, the ecological impact of artisanal fisheries in the region has grown signific...

As tools within ecosystem-based fisheries management (EBFM), a wide range of Ecosystem Models (EMs) have been designed to represent ecosystem complexity, but it is not always clear how the outputs of these models can be applied. We address this debate in a literature review to illustrate how a better understanding of ecosystem modeling within the E...
