Marlène Boura is a PhD candidate at the University of Luxembourg. Her work investigates the spatial integration of natural and impervious lands across space in hundreds of European cities. She also looks at how different urban landscapes lead to different levels of provision and supply of ecosystem services coming from the urban vegetation (or urban forest).
Marlène holds a Master’s degree in Statistics and Econometrics from the Toulouse School of Economics and is involved in teaching activities since 2014. She is teaching statistics and spatial statistics since 2017 at the University of Luxembourg.
