Research interests
 
- lightning events and detection in the Earth’s and Venus’ atmospheres through analysis of observational data and wave propagation models; parameterization of lightning frequency using meteorological variables from reanalysis datasets
- numerical simulations with the coastal model FESOM-C with focus on:
a) marine circulation in the North Sea, with specific focus on Marine Protected Areas in German Bight
b) average sea level rise scenarios in the Venice lagoon and related changes in marine circulation in the region
- classification of atmospheric wind and pressure patterns for the implementation of boundary conditions of regional numerical simulations of the response of coastal marine circulation to specific meteorological events, using the ERA5 reanalysis dataset; study of the change in the frequency of these patterns in the next decades according to different emission scenarios
- analysis of time series with advanced spectral methods (e.g. wavelet, Monte Carlo – Singular Spectrum Analysis) for the identification and statistical predictions of significant variability modes
- measurement of stable isotopes in marine sediment cores from the Ionian Sea and the Tyrrhenian Sea for the study of climate variations in the last millennia and during the last deglaciation
- solar variability reconstruction in recent centuries through the measurement of gamma activity of cosmogenic radioisotopes in meteorites
