Gabriel Lucas Xavier da Silva
PhD student at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Tokyo, Japan.
I’m a marine scientist from Brazil, mainly interested in coral conservation and how connectivity modeling can be used for securing ocean biodiversity in the face of climate change. Graduated in Oceanography at the University of Sao Paulo (USP) and Master in Remote Sensing from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), I had also worked with statistical analysis applied to paleoclimate events, influence of land-use change in water quality parameters, oceanic fronts and marine heatwaves variability. You can read more about my projects in the research tab. A selection of publications in peer-reviewed journals and meetings are also available here. Currently, I’m a PhD student at the Tokyo Institute of Technology under the Nakamura Laboratory.
