The focus of my research at the moment is the effect of temperature increase due to climate change on mangrove productivity. I have experience in the field of ecology, physiology and animal behavior, working mainly on the following topics: climate change, invertebrate biology, distribution, period of activity of coastal organisms, prey-predator recognition and animal preference (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Mangroves are known to be productive environments that play important ecological functions, such as, for example, nursery for marine life, protection of the coastline, carbon sink and the production of fishery resources. Although the productivity of mangroves is an ecosystem service of great value, studies on this subject are mainly focused on the investigation of primary production. Howe…
One of the determining factors in the distribution of fiddler crabs (genus Uca) is the concentration of Organic Matter (OM) in the sediment of intertidal zones. However, the literature indicates an antagonism: although it is reported that, experimentally, the crabs of the same species, regardless of size, always prefer living or foraging in areas with a high content of organic matter, in …
Coastal organisms present rhythms of activities regulated under environmental pressures and / or biological weapons, so that the peaks of activity culminating in the highest survival rates. Predation, for example, can affect the density, distribution and social interactions of these organisms. This study aims to evaluate the effect of predation on the pace of activities of crabs of the ge…
The understanding of ecological functionality of estuaries depends on research to evaluate both the effect of environmental factors on organisms and the effect promoted by those organisms on the environment. The objective of the BEPE scholarship request is to evaluate the techniques of experimental design, collection of samples and statistical analyzes used to describe the interference of…
