Master’s degree in Forest and Environmental Science (University of Padua), PhD in Land Environment Resources and health (University of Padua).
Current position: Researcher at Institute of Polar Sciences-CNR, Venezia; permanent position. Since 2010, my research activities have been on mountain and environmental science with a focus on the relationship between climate change and snow and ice dominated high altitude environments.
After my master’s degree, my activities were on geomorphology, hydrology and glaciology at TESAF department of the University of Padua. I have analyzed the interaction between the climatic variations of the last century (e.g. modification of the thermo-pluviometric regimes) and the changes of the Alpine cryosphere (e.g. variations in volume, variation of the seasonal snow cover etc.) as well as the consequences of global warming on the evolution of the glacial masses over thousands of years. During last years, I collaborated with international research projects such as Ortles project (a paleoclimatic research project) and POLLiCE project (analysis of pollen present on ice cores from the Alps).
My topic is on the analysis of climate evolution during the last 2000 years through the study of Alpine and Apennine ice cores. Since 2017, I am in the Italian team of Ice Memory, an international mountain glaciers salvage program research project. At the same time, I'm collaborating to the Col Margherita Atmospheric Observatory (MRG) project with the aim of measuring the atmospheric composition above 2500 m in the Dolomitic region.
