Bio
Since 1994, Dalila Espírito Santo (Linking Landscape, Architecture, Agriculture and Food (LEAF)/Landscape Architecture, Biodiversity and Conservation Group responsible) provides part of the scientific basis to the implementation of the Habitats Directive in Portugal, such as information on habitat types, needed to the Sectorial Plan for the Natura 2000 network in Portugal (in 2004), including ecological characterization and management measures. Her research area focuses on aspects of plant conservation and knowledge about vegetation and flora. Plant conservation research is focused on identification of threatened plant species, detection of threats to species' persistence, and delineation of management plans to reverse the process of decline, stave-off extinction and ensure future sustainability. Research is targeted towards endemic and threatened species, as well as invasive and exotic plants that exert pressure on natural ecosystems. Some plant species involve ex-situ conservation of wild germplasm management. Vegetation studies aim to produce ecosystem typologies directly usable in habitat conservation policies and management as well as study vegetation’s self-organization processes in several time and space scales: from individual plant communities to the landscape mosaics. Other relevant issues include the relationship of vegetation units to environmental factors, disturbance and climatic change. At the typological level, it is important the contribution to the Checklist of Portuguese Vegetation. Other research lines includes the identification of plant species composition patterns and diversity in grasslands submitted to different uses in the east mainland Portugal and in temporary pounds in the southwest and the landscape analyse from a cultural, natural and human resource point of view.
She was Director of the Botanical Garden of Ajuda until 2019, European Consortium of Botanical Gardens representative of the International Association of Botanical Gardens since 2018 and Representative of Agronomy Institute in the Strategic Councils of the Natural Park of Sintra-Cascais until 2018, Natural Park of Aire and Candeeiros Hills and Natural Reserve of Boquilobo Swampn until now. She was also the coordinator of the Line of Biodiversity of LEAF Research Unit between 2013-2018.
Actualy she coordinates a cartography project for 31 Sites of Natura 2000 Net and the management plans for 9 Sites, with a team of 30 researchers.
