Oscar González-Pelayo, biologist, holds a pedagogic specialization course & a Ph.D. in Desertification (2011, Cum Laude. Univ. Valencia, Spain) through research stays at IPC (Portugal) & Desertification Research Centre (Spain). He has been involved in 22 national and international EU projects as a researcher in (i) Desertification Research Center, (ii) University of Valencia (Spain), (iii) MED-CHANGE-University of Évora, Portugal & (iv) CESAM (Centro de Estudos do Ambiente e do Mar-Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal). His research is developed in desertification process; on soil classification, soil erosion/hydrology, post-fire on/off-site effects & their mitigation & on the development of soil health indicators in forest and agricultural lands. He has proven experience in applied research in soil ecosystem services & in applying solutions to prevent &/or reverse soil degradation. He lectured technical courses on fire effects on soil to the National Emergency & Civil Protection Authority (ANEP-FEPC), co-coordinated courses to guide forest managers on post-fire soil degradation. Committed to promoting soil literacy, he has engaged with students from kindergarten to bachelor levels in both Portugal & Spain. He taught Agronomy, Animal Science & Technology & Geography bachelor subjects at Univ. Évora & Physical Geography aqt Unive. Aveiro. He presented over 60 conference abstracts & participated in 22 (inter)national research projects. Co-PI in FRISCO proejct & PI of Assessing the impacts of post-fire logging operations on soil erosion and their mitigation by best silvicultural practices. He co-supervised 3 MSc & 3 PhD students, mentored 9 MSc students & served juries for 3 MSc & 2 international PhD. He currently is the advisory committee chair of the PhD (Univ. Nova Lisboa) “Agroforestry for ecosystem services in post-fire management across Europe”. Recognized with 2 awards (Erasmus Mobility-Univ. Aveiro & EGU2015 Young Scientist's Travel Award), he is referee for 12 journals & chairs the Soil Physics section of the Spanish Society of Soil Science (SECS). He published 32 manuscripts (24 in Q1, 1st author in 6 & 35 citations on average,1037 in total), 3 book chapters, 1 book review, 3 technical reports & 1 policy publication. He has 150 co-authors, 45 with multiple shared publications.
