CV

Pedro has a background in agronomy and soil science, with a focus on soil erosion and soil conservation. His research combines empirical methods with numerical models to understand lateral soil-redistribution-processes and their on- and off-site effects. Pedro is interested in anything related to soils, agriculture, and water, but he is also keen on statistics, coding in R, philosophy of science, and all things uncertain.
