Meet REWRITE researchers: say hello to Konstantina Apostolopoulou

With an enduring passion for the wonders of the natural world, Konstantina Apostolopoulou, a biologist, holds an MSc in Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. Adept in ecology across diverse scales, from population dynamics to the pivotal roles of Protected Areas (PAs) and Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) in preserving biodiversity.

Embarking on the captivating odyssey within the REWRITE project, Konstantina is set to unfold a compelling narrative through her Ph.D. thesis. Focused on evaluating seascape connectivity, her research delves into the intricate relationships between connectivity, the ecological state of the Intertidal Soft Sediment (ISS) along the rewilding/restoration spectrum, and the impact of seascape structure on key ecosystem services.
