Ingeniero Agrónomo y Magíster en Ciencias de la Ingeniería, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Doctor en Ciencias del Suelo de la Universidad de Wisconsin-Madison.
ÁREAS DE INVESTIGACIÓN
Sus investigaciones están orientadas a las transferencias de masa y energía en el ambiente, con aplicaciones en física e hidrología de suelos; biofísica ambiental; manejo y conservación de suelos y aguas. También estudia la erosión hídrica y producción de sedimentos; bioingeniería de suelos; evaluación de impacto ambiental y relaciones suelo-agua-planta-atmósfera; manejo y optimización del riego y vegetación en sistemas urbanos.
