Senior Researcher at the Brazilian Institute of Space Research and Coordinator of the Earth System Science Center (CCST / INPE). CNPq Fellow. Postgraduate Professor at CCST / INPE; Collaborating Professor at NEPAM (UNICAMP). I started my scientific work with a focus on biogeochemistry, stable isotopes and interactions among the components of the biosphere, including "anthropic landscapes". Recently, the academic and research activities are centered on the diagnosis and prognosis of anthropogenic activities and climatic changes, in natural biogeochemical processes, land use and land cover, greenhouse gas emissions and sustainability indicators, including mitigation and adaptation actions; with contributions to the Brazilian government on issues related to the quantification of carbon emissions of the LULUCF sector. Appointed IPCC contributor to WG-II - Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability (for AR5 and AR6 cycles) and to the Task Force on GHG emissions inventories; for IPBES on Regional and Subregional Scope Evaluation; and for the Climate and Clean Air Coalition to Reduce Short-Term Climate Pollutants (CCAC) in Latin America; Member of the American Geophysical Union's Committee on International Participation (AGU-CIP); Member of the Coordination of the FAPESP Program of Research on Global Climate Change; Vice-Chair of the Brazilian Research Network on Global Climate Change (CLIMA Network); Member of the Scientific Steering Committee of the Global Carbon Project Scientific Street (GCP); Former Brazilian representative of the Executive Board of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI, 2012-2019); Regional Director of the International Nitrogen Initiative (INI, 2009-2019) (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This proposal aims to create a Science Center for Development (CCD) aimed at the elaboration of strategies for the restoration of native vegetation in the Atlantic Forest Biome (Atlantic Forest Strategy - CCD-EMA). The project aims to generate information, presented in the form of strategic actions, aiming at the implementation of commitments to restore native vegetation in this biome, de…
Producing animals (e.g., cattle, fish) for human consumption is a major contributor to global climate change, but not all foods carry the same environmental burden. In the Amazon, cattle, pigs, and chickens have long been supplemented by capture fisheries, but aquaculture is rapidly expanding. However, the ecological cost of farming fish and how it compares to other animal-sourced foods i…
To guarantee the quality of inland aquatic systems and promote strategies for water security at a drainage basin scale, it is necessary to understand the sources of pollutants, determine their locations and analyze the possible risks that these sources can cause to natural systems. In the present project, we focus on the Paraíba do Norte river basin as the unit of planning and management …

The proposed workshop will address 'Global Climate Change, Biodiversity and ecosystems'. Specifically, Amazônia, an extensive region in South America (parts of Brazil, Peru, Colombia, etc.), is globally important as a C sink: and climate regulator and is experiencing extensive encroachment from conversion to agriculture, ranching, extraction industries, etc., that impact on the sustainabi…
We will examine the challenge of delivering food security now and in the future on limited area, which will entail examining feedback Interactions between land use change and food security dynamics. We will use the high resolution, spatially disaggregated global models and databases of soils, land-use, crops and livestock, developed by consortium partners as the basis for the analysis. We…
The current proposal seeks to develop coordinated scientific and technological activities between institutions and researchers from Pernambuco and São Paulo states. The objective of the project is to evaluate the impacts of projected climate changes on the carbon and nitrogen balances and the productivity of the main crops and native vegetation within the different regions of Pernambuco. …

The state of São Paulo has an area of 248,196.960 km2 and a population of 41,262,199 with inhabitants distributed over 645 towns IBGE, (2013). Among the Brazilian states, it is the most populous and the largest producer of municipal solid waste (MSW), producing about 39,072 tons each day CETESB, (2015). Many of its municipalities dispose waste inappropriately, causing various environmenta…
