Researcher at the National Institute for Space Research / Science Center of the Earth System and professor of graduate of Nuclear Technology Course IPEN / University of São Paulo. Scholarship CNPq level 1D. Coordinates the Greenhouse Gas Laboratory (LaGEE), part of LaPBio / CCST / INPE. Operates since 2003 mainly on research in the area of Climate Change, focused on understanding the role of Amazonia in the greenhouse gases Balances and the effect of climate variables in these statements. Operates in the areas of chemistry of the atmosphere, with an emphasis on trace Gas Analysis and Environmental Chemistry, acting on the following topics: greenhouse gases, atmospheric interactions, trace gases, volatile organic compounds. Graduated in Chemistry in FFCLRP- Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo (1987), Master in Chemistry Analytics from the University of São Paulo - São Carlos IQF (1991) and PhD in Science - UFSCar - Department of Chemistry (1997). Specialist in high precision greenhouse gases measurements and studies on regional scale using small aircraft measures. Coordinates international cooperation projects in partnership primarily with NOAA, University of Colorado, University of Leeds, Leicester, Wageningen, Edinburgh, among others.

We propose to determine the fate of the carbon sink and methane source of the Amazon Basin in a period during which the Basin is likely to experience a warming and increasingly variable climate, as well as increasing direct human pressure. This will be done primarily by regularly measuring vertical profiles of atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations over the Basin. Our previous work, pu…
The main propose is to determine the fate of the carbon sink and methane source of the Amazon Basin in a period during which the Basin is likely to experience a warming and increasingly variable climate, as well as increasing direct human pressure. This will be done primarily by regularly measuring vertical profiles of atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations over the Basin. Our previous…
The project focus is the statistical treatment of the data obtained since 2010, of the greenhouse gas balance interannual variation in the Amazon Basin. In the first stage, the information already collected will be integrated into a single big database, with columns referring to variables such as CO2, CH4, N2O and SF6 concentration, other gases, meteorological parameters and data regardin…
The Amazon is one of the largest forest regions in the world and it represents the largest reservoir of above ground organic carbon. Despite its important role for the global carbon cycle, the Amazonian region is only poorly constrained by data integrating processes over large spatial scales. The Amazon is currently the focus of major UK and Brazilian research projects that aim at improvi…
The journalistic research proposal that will be continued together with INPE's Laboratory of Greenhouse Gases (LaGEE) in São José dos Campos is part of the study on the Balance of Greenhouse Gases in the Amazon Basin. Scientific journalism is the most appropriate tool to inform society and make it understand the importance of research and its results, as well as the Amazon Forest, as the …
The journalistic research proposal to be developed at the Greenhouse Gas Laboratory (LaGEE) of INPE of São José dos Campos is part of the study on the Greenhouse Gas Balance of the Amazon Basin. With regard to scientific journalism, it is important that the transcription of academic language for the wide dissemination of the material to be presented to the public is done in the most judic…

Carbon emissions from fires (C-fire) account roughly for one-tenth of the global annual C emissions, wherein Amazon has a great role due to the rapid land-use change (LUC) in the last decades. Recent researches have shown an increase of 11% global fires emissions by 1997-2016. South America and especially the Brazilian Amazon have also experienced an increase in forest fires, which has be…
This BEPE proposal is linked to the candidate's Postdoctoral project (2018/18493-7) that is already in progress. The scientific goal of this main project is to estimate GHG balances of the Amazon over a period of approximately one decade and to relate the observed inter-annual variation to climate anomalies, climate change and human alteration of the land surface. In general, this approac…
