I am interested in climatology, particularly urban climatology and bioclimatology. I have a degree in Geography and a master's degree in Physical Geography and Territorial Planning. I am currently a PhD student at IGOT/CEG and my project is related to Thermal Comfort evaluation in Lisbon at microscale.
