Dra. Laura Ramajo

Descripción de investigación: Actualmente investigo los impactos que impone la surgencia sobre el crecimiento, la calcificación y otras variables fisiológicas en el ostión del norte, con el objetivo de poder predecir como el cambio climático y la intensificación de la misma surgencia podría afectar a la industria del ostión en la región.
