I have been collaborating with CNR IRBIM in Ancona since 1997. In 2010, I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Technology from the University of Camerino, and at the same university, in 2014, I received my Ph.D. in Information Science and Complex Systems.
I am involved in environmental data acquisition with focus on oceanographic measurements with CTD multiparameter probes and current meters, design, implementation and management of meteo-oceanographic observational platforms, including through new technologies and prototypes. Performs post-processing, quality control and analysis of historical time series regarding climate change and anthropogenic impact. I have participated in numerous national and international projects as a Work Package or Task leader. I have organized or participated in more than 100 oceanographic campaigns, including as a mission leader, in the Mediterranean Sea. In 2006, 2012 and 2014, I participated in national expeditions to Antarctica aboard the Oceanographic Ship Italica. I have authored/co-authored 19 ISI articles, book chapters and research reports. I am involved in dissemination of research results and outreach through oral presentations, posters, online journal articles and public talks.
Agreement aimed at collaboration for the joint installation of scientific instrumentation in the marine area in front of Senigallia (AN) for the development of research of common interest within the MORSE project.
The research activities of the Institute are carried out in the context of research, development and innovation projects, both national and international, based on regional funding programs (POR FEAMPA - Regional Operational Program of the European Maritime Affairs Fisheries Fund and Aquaculture and POR FESR - Regional Operational Program of the European Regional Development Fund) or ministerial (PRIN - Projects of relevant national interest, PNRA - National Research Program in Antarctica, PO FEAMPA - National Operational Program European Maritime Affairs Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) , programs for European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg), direct funding programs of the European Commission (Horizon2020 and Horizon Europe, Life, JPI - Joint Programming Initiatives, ERA-NET Cofund) and thematic collaboration initiatives managed by international organizations such as, for example , the FAO - GFCM (General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean). The Institute also develops funded projects in the context of collaborations with private companies in the sectors of the blue economy as well as technology transfer and research results. Research projects, mainly of a collaborative nature, are developed through a wide network of partners that include major Italian and foreign research institutions and universities.
