I'm currently an Assistant Professor at UNICAMP. I study the growth, ecology, and dynamics of tropical forest trees in a changing world and use wood as a tool to address these questions: tree-ring analysis, wood anatomy, and stable isotopes. I´ve previously worked on provenancing wood used in XVI and XVII-century Iberian shipbuilding (forseadiscovery.eu), and have used tree-ring analysis to assess past changes in growth and physiology of tropical trees in relation to climate change (PhD).
