Viviana Almanza
Water Ecology Researcher
Viviana Almanza
Water Ecology Researcher
Dr. Viviana Almanza is a specialist in the taxonomy of microalgae and freshwater phytoplankton, with a focus on cyanobacteria and harmful algae. With more than 20 years of experience in scientific research, she has co-authored numerous studies published in peer-reviewed journals, addressing aquatic ecology as well as the frequency and spatial-temporal dynamics of cyanobacterial blooms.
Her current research focuses on evaluating the effects of ultrasonic treatment on cyanobacterial populations, eukaryotic microalgae (such as dinoflagellates and diatoms), and the phytoplankton community as a whole. She also investigates how this technology can contribute to the restoration of natural aquatic ecosystems and the improvement of water quality.
In addition, Dr. Almanza explores other applications of ultrasound aimed at optimizing the sustainable use and efficient management of water resources, expanding its implementation across different productive and environmental contexts.
