I’m biologist with experience in the field of Fish Ecology (emphasis on Food and reproductive Biology), and in Aquatic Ecotoxicology, working mainly on the following topics: Biomonitoring the quality of surface water, analysis in fish scales by the technique Lases-Induced Plasma Spectroscopy, LIBS-Laser induced Breakdown Spectroscopy. Iam currently a Postdoctoral fellow in Tropical Biodiversity Program (Federal University of Amapá), with the objective is evaluating the influence of the land use coverage onthe low Araguari River course; investigate the presence of metals non-essencial (PB,Cr and Hg) in the water, in the scales of the most frequent and the commercial interest fish specieis; Evaluate possible genotoxic effects on the selected fish, using them as indicatos of environmental degradation.
