She received her Ph.D. in Science and Engineering of sea (2010) at the University “Federico II” in Naples. She is currently a researcher at the Institute of Polar Sciences (ISP-CNR). Her research is mainly focused on Marine Microbiology and Biotechnology in particular on: i) Structure and function of microbial marine microbial community associated to oil contaminated area; ii) Genetic and physiology of marine bacteria for biotechnological application; iv) Bioremediation and monitoring in marine environment (focus on technology and biotechnology in situ and ex situ). She spent one year at the College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics Cal State Fullerton University California, United States working on artificial vectors engineering and in vitro techniques for transformation and conjugation of bacteria cells. She had many occasions for international and national collaboration since she has participated to several national research programs (PRIN, PON, PNRA) and international programs (KBBE FP7 es. MAGIC-PAH, KILLSPILL, BRAAVOO)
She is author/co-author of over 30 international peer-reviewed publications, and 4 book chapters

The increasingly evident melting of the ice sheets and glaciers with the consequent changes in sea level, together with the destruction of the ice shelves, highlight how this part of the cryosphere is an extremely fragile portion of the Earth system. Glaciers are unique climate archives that give us the opportunity to investigate the climate of the past and to assess the changes taking place with a long-term perspective. However, these changes are also evident from the melting of the permafrost, which has a dramatic impact in polar and high-altitude mid-latitudes areas. In the difficult context of climate change, the researchers of the Institute of Polar Sciences, through their interrelated research activities, deal with the study of snow and ice, their chemical composition and their main physical parameters, the evolution of the permafrost and the impact of increased melting on the atmosphere, biosphere and hydrosphere at both regional and global levels.
 

Federico Dallo received his Master’s degree in Chemistry (LM-54) from the University of Ferrara in 2013, specializing in theoretical and computational chemistry under Prof. Celestino Angeli. In 2017, he earned a Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences from Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, focusing on volatile organic compound diffusion in snowpack under Prof. Carlo Barbante. From 2017 to 2020, he was a Research Fellow at CNR-IDPA/CNR-ISP, working on low-cost environmental monitoring technologies at the Col Margherita meteo-climatic observatory in alpine and polar regions. From 2021 to 2023, he was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow, conducting research on wireless sensor networks in collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley. Since 2024, Federico has been a full-time researcher at CNR-ISP in Venice, focusing on the relationship between human behavior and environmental hazards to inform policy and interventions for societal resilience and public health.

Graduated in Physics in 1993, he is currently researcher at the National Research Council, Institute of Polar Sciences (CNR-ISP). He has over 20 years of experience in the field of marine meteorology at the micro- and meso-scale, through the use of remote sensing with active microwave instruments in the marine environment, on satellite and on observation platforms during campaigns at sea (Adriatic Sea: Acqua Alta tower, platforms ENI; Kikeneiz research platform on the Black Sea).
He deals with analyzing historical series of meteorological-marine data acquired both through in situ and remote sensing data. He is co-author of some works on wind characterization at the air-sea interface through the analysis of SAR images with the continuous wavelets technique. He participated in the MIUR RITMARE project dealing with the acquisition and interpretation of remote sensing scatterometric data for the determination of the wind at the sea surface.
He participated in the ESA eSurge-Venice project on the expansion of the possibility of using satellite data to predict storm surges. Recently he has carried out research in the ESA Sea Level Climate Change Initiative (SL_CCI), in carrying out the ESA SL_CCI Bridging Phase project, dealing with applications of satellite altimetry.
He participates in the ESA Radar Altimetry for the Coastal Zone and Inland Waters project, which involves the development of specific applications of SAR satellite altimetry in coastal areas and inland waters.
He has been the scientific manager of three research projects funded by the Tide Forecasting and Reporting Center (Municipality of Venice). His main scientific interests include microwave remote sensing of the marine environment and the interpretation of synthetic aperture radar images; continuous wavelet transformation techniques; time series analysis of wind, sea level and backscatter radar; storm surge forecasts; complementarity of atmospheric modeling and satellite remote sensing. He is the author/co-author of more than 30 indexed products (source Scopus) as articles published in international journals or as acts of international conferences. Its scientific production can be quantified by a number of citations equal to 242 and an h-index equal to 9 (source Scopus).
