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.

Degree in Biological Sciences (1983), and Ph.D. in Environmental sciences: Marine environment and resources (1989), and CNR researcher in marine ecology (1994).
The scientific work is summarized in several Technical Reports of oceanographic cruises (as scientific head) and more than 100 publications on national and international journals in the following lines of research:
(i) ecological and physiological role of phytoplankton size-fraction in marine food webs of coastal and off-shore zone in the Mediterranean Sea, Ross Sea (Antarctica) and the Straits of Magellan;
(ii) study of the trophic conditions in the brackish lagoon ecosystems exposed to chemical pollution and eutrophication phenomena (Habs);
(iii) development of automatic monitoring of physico-chemical, optics and biological parameters (phytoplankton) in coastal marine environments through in situ (buoy and ship) and remote sensing (MIVIS, SeaWiFS).
He has participated in several national programs (ROSSMIZE, PRISMA, CLUSTER10, SNOW Artide) and projects of CNR and the Mi.P.A. and international (EU VFP: Strategy; EU FP6: SPICOSA WT 10.3 leader ; INTERACT EU: Sponge).

Degree in civil hydraulic engineering (1982), PhD Geological Sciences (2008) both at Padua University. 1990-2019 Researcher at Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (National Research Council of Italy) at the Research Institute for Geo-Hydrological Protection (CNR–IRPI).
Associated tchnologist at the Institute of Polar Science (CNR-ISP).
His working experience includes field monitoring and laboratory studies on debris flows and landslides, particularly on triggering and deposition phenomena, also from the rheological point of view. Research experience includes hydrology of flash floods and related landslides triggering. Recently his interests include also the mechanics of rock avalanches.
He took part in several international research projects and worked for three years in New Zealand, at the Lincoln and Canterbury Universities, working on debris flow and rock avalanches physical and numerical modelling. He has also been in charge of the computer network of the IRPI Padova institute.

After receiving her bachelor's degree in Geology at the University of Trieste and her master's degree in Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Innsbruck, she completed a PhD in Earth Science and Fluid Mechanics at the University of Trieste and the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), where she carried out her research activity about paleoclimatic modeling until December 2021.
She is currently a research fellow for the "CryoKarst FVG - Cryosphere in the Karstic environments of Friuli-Venezia Giulia" project at the Institute of Polar Sciences of the CNR (CNR-ISP), at the Science-Park Area - Basovizza, Trieste.
Her project focuses on monitoring the external and hypogeal cryosphere in karst and alpine environments which are investigated under a climatic, paleoclimatic and geomorphological perspective by the mean of glaciological surveys and geophysical, 3D and modeling approaches. As part of her research activity, she is also interested in the climate-cryosphere interactions in the Alpine region from the LGM to the present days. She applies a modeling approach based on the reconstruction of the environmental ELA and the main atmospheric circulation patterns. She participated in a scientific expedition in the Himalayas (Nepal) and several glaciological campaigns in the central and eastern Alps.
