Manuel Hernández Fernández
My primary research interests are in the area of evolutionary ecology, encompassing a wide variety of problems related to the biological and climatic evolution of the Neogene–Quaternary Earth. My research revolves around understanding the relationships between climate and terrestrial vertebrate faunas. I am particularly interested in understanding the structure of Cenozoic mammal communities, integrating evolutionary and community ecology theories in studies with a multispecies perspective.
The focus of my current research is in the use of mammal faunas for high precision palaeoenvironmental inference, and in identifying key patterns and drivers of community evolution, particularly how and why mammal faunas vary as a function of environment, geologic age, biogeographic history, and taxonomic or functional group.
