Gabriel Bertolini

 Dr. Gabriel Bertolini is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of British Columbia. He completed his Ph.D. in Geosciences from the University of Aberdeen and Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul in 2020, with a research focus on sand generation and dispersal in ancient sedimentary systems. Dr. Bertolini specializes in utilizing geochemical, geochronological, and petrology tools in detrital minerals, employing multivariate statistics to investigate sedimentary processes. Prior to his current role, Dr. Bertolini held positions as a postdoctoral fellow and lecturer at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul from 2021 to 2023. In 2024, he served as a research fellow at Unisinos, applying machine learning tools to model sedimentary basins. His research interests includes sedimentary provenance, fluvial-aeolian deposition, volcano-sedimentary interactions, and the stratigraphy of intracratonic basins. Additionally, he has expertise in data analysis and software development, utilizing R and Python for geosciences applications. Dr. Bertolini's research has led him to investigate various basins across South America, South Africa, China, and Europe.
