One of his most notable contributions is as co-author of the book Geosites of the Aysén Region ( https://www.researchgate.net/publication/365646454_Libro_Geositios_de_la_region_Aysen ) , a landmark publication that compiles a regional inventory of geosites and offers a thematic framework for their classification and conservation.

José has also developed technical and educational materials aimed at promoting scientific tourism and public engagement with geosciences, including the Interpretive Guide to the Geology of Salto del Río Ibáñez (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/366154434_Guia_interpretativa_de_la_geologia_del_Salto_del_rio_Ibanez ) and the Technical Guide – Geological Circuit of Coyhaique (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/366154344_Guia_-_Circuito_geologico_de_la_ciudad_de_Coyhaique), which translate complex geological knowledge into accessible and engaging experiences.

In addition, he played an active role in cataloguing the rock collection of the Aysén Regional Museum, supporting public access to the geological knowledge of the region.

With a solid academic foundation and a passion for education, José seamlessly blends science and storytelling to bring the geological history of Patagonia to life—clear, rigorous, and deeply inspiring.
