Berto Daniela Graduated in Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Technologies in 1993, researcher at ISPRA since 2000. Head of the oceanography and Contamination of Aquatic Environments laboratory since 2009 at the ISPRA in Chioggia. My analytical expertise concerns the chemical characterization (elemental and isotopic) of dissolved, particulate and sedimentary organic substance in marine environments, transition waters and polar environments; analysis of contamination of water, sediments and organisms by organotin compounds; characterization of the stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen in the trophic chain; analysis of dissolved nutrients in marine, transitional and polar waters. My activity focuses on the planning of the analytical activity required by the various institutional, national and European projects, in the evaluation of the quality of the data produced with the drafting of reports, field activities (boarding) and participation in institutional meetings and international conferences. In addition to my scientific activity, 70 international publications and 70 or more participations in conferences and posters, I am involved in terms of my chemical skills in national working groups and institutional roles, in particular as an expert and national representative in the established technical working groups at the European Commission and UNEP/MAP for the Barcelona Convention on the issue of contaminants since 2014. Since 2020 reference for Italy for WISE 6 -NRC for reporting activities.
Since 2021, I have been participating in the Arctic Table at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI). National expert for the D4 and D8 descriptors in the Marine Strategy (MSFD) WGs and TSGs since 2017 in the European Expert Network on Contaminants group European Commission Joint Research Center (JRC).
Participation in several European projects MEDREGION (Support Mediterranean Member States towards the implementation of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive new GES Decision and programs of measures and contribute to regional/subregional cooperation), PNRA PROPOSE (Processes controlling the presence and distribution of pollutants in Ross Sea Area); HarmoNIA (Harmonization and Networking for contaminant assessment in the Ionian and Adriatic Seas), Interreg Program ADRION, European Marine Observation and Data EMODNET Chemistry Service Contract No. MARE/2012/10 – Lot 4 Chemistry; VECTOR LINE 6 The role of the Northern Adriatic continental shelf in Mediterranean carbon cycles (CARADRI); 2009 PNRA Trace metals in the Antarctic food web.

Biscaro Enrico PhD student in Polar Sciences at Ca' Foscari University of Venice, where he previously obtained a Master's Degree in Environmental Sciences. His research project aims to understand if in the recent period Svalbard has really changed their climatic regime defining the potential associated consequences.

Bohleber Pascal Received his PhD in physics from Heidelberg University in 2011. He has worked in ice core and glaciological research at institutions in Germany, USA and Austria before receiving a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship at the University of Venice (www.unive.it/gold-ice).
He has participated in numerous field campaigns on remote glaciers in the European Alps, Kilimanjaro, Greenland and Antarctica. His recent focus lies on ice core research with laser ablation inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS).

Calace Nicoletta Graduated in Chemistry in 1993, obtained a PhD in 1997, she has been a senior technologist at ISPRA since 2021 and a technologist since 2005. Specializing in the chemical contamination of freshwater and marine environments, sediments, and soil, over the years, she has carried out numerous activities, including chemical and ecotoxicological laboratory work aimed at developing analytical methodologies and environmental indicators. She has also been involved in fieldwork, including participation in four expeditions to Antarctica, two of which she coordinated the project personnel. Her activities also encompass training, processing and validating chemical data from environmental monitoring, and providing support to ministries and other entities.
Currently, she manages and participates in environmental research activities related to the management of chemical contamination and the diffusion processes of contaminants, in line with the institutional activities of the Institute. In recent years, she has provided technical-scientific support for activities related to the collection and organization of databases related to the monitoring of different types of water, to be transmitted at the European level (EIONET Soe). She is the national representative (NRC) for Marine, coastal, and maritime issues at the European Environment Agency.
In past years, she has provided technical-scientific support for reporting activities related to the Nitrates Directive, activities related to the management and reclamation of some Sites of National Interest, the IPPC/AIA Commission, and the VIA Commission. For about 20 years, she has been involved in polar environment research, starting during her academic years and continuing to the present. She currently coordinates a Collaboration Agreement with the British Antarctic Survey (BAS). She is involved in several national and international research projects and has produced more than 80 refereed and non-refereed scientific publications.

Calì Federico Master’s degree in Marine Biology at the University of Padova; PhD student at the University of Bologna (FishMed-PhD).
Since 2015 he has been working on national fishery monitoring programs, within the EU-Data Collection Framework, funded by scholarships of Ancona National Research Council (CNR). From 2015 he also has been participating in marine research activities of the Padova University, at the Hydrobiological Station of Chioggia. His fields of interest are inherent to the biological life cycles of commercial fish species of the Mediterranean and the Antarctic areas (notothenioids). In particular, he investigated reproductive traits of these species thought histological analyses of gonads, age structure/growth cycle by means of otoliths’ readings and some trophic features using the stomach content analyses.
He collaborated in more than 10 scientific trawl surveys in Italian water and joined the 38th Italian expedition to Antarctica (2022/2023).
