Get to know... Hélder Fraga

I am a career researcher at CITAB, where I develop my work in the field of agroclimatology, with a particular focus on viticulture. I am also a member of the Department of Agronomy at UTAD, where I teach in the Agronomy and Oenology programmes, contributing to the education of future professionals in the sector. My research focuses on assessing the impacts of climate variability and extreme events on agricultural systems, as well as modelling future scenarios to support crop adaptation and enhance resilience. I also develop work on the application of digital technologies to agriculture, namely through the use of artificial intelligence and predictive models based on machine learning.
