Ph.D. in Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity (2024) from São Paulo State University (Unesp), with research focused on how ecological filters influence the assembly of plant communities in the Cerrado. M.Sc. in Ecology and Biodiversity from the same institution, where he investigated the flammability of Cerrado plant species. B.Sc. in Ecology from Unesp (2017), with research on the management of regenerating Cerrado areas. Currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of São Paulo (USP), working and collaborating on projects in community ecology, functional ecology, invasion ecology, and applied ecology.

An important emerging property in fire-prone ecosystems is vegetation and plant flammability. During the evolution of flammability, traits that increased fire frequency and intensity were selected. Flammability can be measured by a set of traits, such as: leaf size, dead biomass retention, plant architecture, presence of secondary compounds (e.g. terpenoids), etc. As a consequence, flamma…
Fire has been a major agent of disturbance in many ecosystems for millions of years. In flammable ecosystems, fire is important for maintaining vegetation structure, and community diversity and composition. Fire is particularly important in maintaining vegetation structure and biodiversity in tropical savannas, which are responsible for 30% of primary productivity globally. Savanna plant …
