Degree M.Sc. Geology (University of Padua).
Current position: Researcher at Institute of Polar Sciences-CNR, Venezia; permanent position.
Previously: Researcher at the Institute for the Dynamics of Environmental Processes – CNR; scholarship at Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia (Italy); fellowship at Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia (Italy); research assistant at Institut de Biogeochimie Marine - ENS – CNRS, France.
Fields of interest: trace elements in real matrices (waters, particulate, microlayer, sediments, snow and ice) using ICP-mass spectrometry. Stable isotopes (δD, δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, δ¹⁸O) in water, snow and ice by means of IR-mass spectrometry. Geochemical characterization of oceanic water masses. Rare earth elements as geochemical tracer in natural water systems: in snow and ice for paleoclimatic reconstruction, in aerosol as tracer of source area. Characterization of natural systems (seawater, particulate, sediments) via chemometrics tools.
