Ilaine Silveira Matos
Ilaíne is a plant ecophysiologist interested in understanding the different mechanisms by which plants respond to climate change, particularly to the interactive effects of droughts, heatwaves and fires. Her research combines observational and experimental fieldwork, greenhouse and laboratory experiments, functional trait assessment, process-based modelling, meta-analysis, and outreach engagement with local communities, middle and high schools, and visitors of protected natural areas. Besides researching plants, Ilaíne also loved to paint them in her watercolors.
