Investigador Ramón y Cajal en Ciencias de la Tierra y del Agua, Centro Interdiscilplinar de Química e Bioloxía (CICA), Universidade da Coruña
Soy paleoclimatólogo con experiencia en diferentes campos del estudio del clima que van desde reconstrucciones climáticas a lo largo del Cuaternario a calibración de datos de registros naturales mediante registros instrumentales. Además, durante mi carrera he buscado enfoques novedosos para mejorar el estudio de la variabilidad atmosférica regional y global durante los últimos milenios.

Me licencié en Geología por la Universitat de Barcelona (UB) en el año 2003. Posteriormente, en septiembre de 2010, obtuve mi doctorado en ciencias de la Tierra en el GEO3BCN-CSIC y la UB con la máxima calificación. También recibí el premio a la mejor tesis doctoral en Ciencias de la Tierra presentada en la UB en ese año. Como investigador, en mi etapa postdoctoral, obtuve dos contratos en concurrencia competitiva: un contrato FCT-Marie Curie Cofund de 2012 a 2017 para trabajar en el IDL-Universidade de Lisboa (Portugal); y un contrato Beatriu de Pinós (AGAUR) de 2018 a 2020, para desarrollar mi propio proyecto de investigación en el GEO3BCN-CSIC. Después de dos años académicos (2020-2022) como profesor en gestión ambiental y forestal, actualmente (desde 2022) soy Investigador Ramón y Cajal en el CICA - UDC, profesor del Departamento de Física y Ciencias de la Tierra, y desde 2024, director de sostenibilidad de la Universidade da Coruña.

Durante mi carrera, he realizado estancias de investigación en distintos centros reconocidos por sus estudios del Cuaternario, lo que me ha permitido adquirir un conocimiento interdisciplinar en biogeoquímica, geocronología y estadística avanzada, para llevar a cabo nuevas reconstrucciones climáticas del Cuaternario basadas en indicadores procedentes de registros naturales. Estas estancias fueron en el British Geological Survey (Reino Unido), la Universidade de Lisboa (Portugal), el University College of Dublin (Irlanda) y la Royal Holloway University of London (Reino Unido). Los principales resultados de mi investigación, derivados de mi liderazgo y colaboración en diversos proyectos de investigación nacionales e internacionales, han sido publicados en revistas científicas internacionales.
