I study the processes related to river-sea transition zones in the Cretaceous of the Neuquén Basin in Argentina, particularly in two sections of the Agrio Formation. I love being outdoors, hiking and enjoying contact with nature.

Focus Areas:

Processes, depositional architecture and sequential context of deposits formed in fluviomarine transition zones (FMTZ) for the Agrio Formation (Lower Cretaceous, Neuquén Basin), process interaction and control in the FMTZ. Refinement of facies models and impacts of the FMTZ, reservoir characterisation and impacts
