Dr. Leonardo Corecco,Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Dr. Leo Corecco is a geologist and paleontologist with a PhD in Sciences (Paleontology) from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (2024). He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Regional University of Cariri (URCA), focusing on the geochemical characterization of fossils from the Araripe Basin. His expertise includes isotopic analyses (C, O, Sr) and various analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction and LA-ICP-MS. He holds a Master’s in Geosciences from the same institution and a Bachelor’s in Geology from the Federal University of Ceará. His research interests span isotopic geochemistry, crystallography, and vertebrate evolution. 📚🔬

Research Focus
Dr. Leo Corecco’s research focuses on the geoquímica e paleontologia of vertebrate fossils, with a particular emphasis on the Triassic and Permian periods. His work involves isotopic analyses (C, O, Sr), spectroscopy techniques, and other advanced analytical methods to interpret paleoenvironmental and paleoecological aspects of ancient ecosystems. His studies explore geochemical signatures, fossil bone chemistry, and paleoenvironmental reconstructions to understand vertebrate evolution and their past environments. Dr. Corecco also examines ethnostratigraphic units and petrological significance in fossil records. 🌍🔬🦴
