Biography

I was born in Buenos Aires in 1965. I perform college career in Biological Sciences in the Natural Science at the Buenos Aires University between 1983 and 1989. Between 1991 and 1997 I did my PhD in the same faculty with grants from CONICET. My dissertation topic was the study of the interactions between the natural vegetation of the Magellanic steppe (in Tierra del Fuego) and sheep. The thesis involucres analysis of sheep diet in different landscapes of the steppe and the analysis of the relationship with forage supply, the characterization of some environmental variables on plant communities and studies of sheep behavior. After completing post doctoral fellowship at the Center for Eco Plant Physiology in 1997 I got a scholarship in Climate and Water Institute on INTA Castelar, where I started working on studies of changes in land use and its impact on the ecosystem functioning, using remote sensing data as a tool. In 2001 I began to be a researcher of this institution. In 2003 I oriented my work to the analysis of carbon sequestration in agricultural activities in the Pampas region of Argentina. On 2007 continued monitoring the flow of greenhouse gases in productive activities and calculation of emission factors. I also worked on the estimation of the efficiency of solar energy in order to improve estimates of primary productivity of native vegetation in the Pampas. In the present, I am making measurements about the emissions of greenhouse gases, especially nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural soils. Eddy covariance and and static vented chambers are the methods that are using, in addition to remote sensing information. Since 2012 I am coordinating the remote sensing area in Climate and Water Institute and coordinate the research project emissions. I have got several undergraduate and graduated students that work with me.
