Introduction
I am a Biologist specializing in Ecology, interested in mathematic biology. I've worked studying plant populations in semi-desert and desert environments, particularly with parasitic plants. Also, I've worked in agroecosystems with interaction between insects and plants.

Detection of plant individuals is imperfect. Not accounting for this issue can result in biased estimates of demographic parameters as important as population growth rates. In mobile organisms, a common practice is to explicitly account for detection probability during the estimation of most demographic parameters, but no study in plant populations...
Detection probability (p) in plants is imperfect in natural conditions due to several factors. This imperfect detectability is rarely accounted for in the estimation of demographic parameters, such as survival probabilities (S) or transition rates between different life states or size classes (ψ), which may result in inaccurate quantitative informa...

The first partial derivatives of λ with respect to demographic parameters quantify linear responses of population growth to vital rate perturbations, but sensitivity itself is situational and can show non-linear responses. We use the second derivative of λ with respect to the demographic parameters to explore this type of responses in a population...
Castilleja tenuiflora is a facultative root hemiparasitic plant that has colonized a disturbed lava field in central Mexico. To determine the effects of hemiparasitism on the population dynamics of the parasite, we identified a set of potential hosts and quantified their effects on the vital rates of C. tenuiflora during 2016–2018. Connections betw...
Disturbance can open new habitats that follow different plant colonization patterns. The Churince hydrological system from the Cuatro Ciénegas Basin has been desiccating progressively since 2003 because of the disturbance of the underground hydrological flow. The terminal lagoon and the last part of the Churince river have had no surface water sinc...
