Geologist graduated from São Paulo State University (UNESP), with an emphasis on structural geology, fracturing pattern and mechanical stratigraphy. Master degree in Geosciences and Environment from São Paulo State University (UNESP), working with structural geology and relationships with slope and slope stability, landslides and debris flows. PhD degree in Geoscience and Environment at the São Paulo State University (UNESP), working with stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochronology and sedimentary provenance. My research currently involves applying geochronology and isotope geochemistry, together with sedimentological and stratigraphical analysis, to solve and understand a diverse series of questions about sedimentary basins evolution, specially the initiation of huge intracratonic basins. It is based mainly around: (i) The application of laser-ablation ICP-MS techniques to isotopic dating of sedimentary deposits and sedimentary provenance analysis; (ii) The use of Electron Probe Microanalyzer (EPMA) techniques to geochemical analysis of accessory minerals in sedimentary sequences (primarily sedimentary provenance analysis using detrital rutile); (iii) Characterization of minerals using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM); (iv) Integrated analysis between sedimentological and stratigraphical analysis and geochronological and provenance data; (v) Geodynamics, plate tectonics and crustal evolution.

The Cariri and Tacaratu formations are part of the Paleozoic basal units of the Araripe and Jatobá/Tucano Norte, and are historically interpreted as distant correlates of the Ipu Formation sediments (Parnaíba Basin). The Paleozoic lower units of the Brazilian cratonic basins are very important to understand and interpret initial sedimentation ages, paleogeography and depositional styles d…
The Jaibaras Basin is usually interpreted as the precursor unit of the Parnaíba Basin, being separated by a regional disagreement. Distensive efforts occurring after the final stages of Gondwana consolidation in the Ediacaran Period would be responsible for the formation of numerous small-sized rift basins possibly from faults and discontinuities of the transbrasilian lineament. At a late…
The importance of understanding brittle structures, such as joints and faults, has increased since the recent discovery of large hydrocarbon reservoirs in carbonate rocks from the Brazilian continental margin, generically known as "pre-salt" since they occur below a thick layer of evaporites. The stratigraphic architecture is a primary controlling factor on fracture development as it dict…
The Cariri and Tacaratu formations are part of the Early Paleozoic basal units of the Araripe and Jatobá/Tucano Norte, and are historically interpreted as distant correlates of the Ipu Formation sediments (Parnaíba Basin). The Paleozoic lower units of the Brazilian cratonic basins are key units to understand and interpret initial sedimentation ages, paleogeography and depositional styles …
The origin of intracratonic basins is currently one of the most prolific topics in the geologic sciences, constituting a challenge in itself. The complexity of this theme, added to the necessity of an integrated approach based in a multi-proxy analysis, places this study on the frontier of modern science. The almost complete lack of integrative studies focused in sedimentological, stratig…
