Ciao!
I'am a researcher specialized in different topics of the Earth Sciences. I use a multidisciplinary approach integrating field works and laboratory analyses.
Since my PhD studies I acquired skills in the use of paleomagnetic techniques to better understand volcanic, sedimentary and tectonic processes. Parallel to this experience in volcanic field, I have developed a research line in tectonics and structural geology, working on Quaternary basins and seismically active areas of the central and southern Apennines.
I spent my academic years in several Universities and research Institutions, such as University of Roma Tre, University of Bologna, Universidade dos Açores, Instituto Dom Luiz de Lisboa, INGV of L'Aquila and University of Perugia. I worked in several Countries such as Portugal, Iceland, Spain, Morocco, Turkey, Arizona, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile, Switzerland, UK.
At moment, I'm a Researcher at the Department of Physics and Geology of the University of Perugia. Here, I'm teaching Petroleum Geology for Master students. At the same time, I'm leading a research program on the study of the 2016-2017 seismic sequence of the central Italy by means of the use of seismic reflection profiles of the area interested by the main shocks.
Research Methodology
Earthquake geology, Structural Geology, Seismic interpretation, Physical volcanology, Geological mapping, Paleomagnetism, Stratigraphy, textural analysis, Petroleum geology
Areas of interest
Subsurface geology of the seismically active areas of the Apennines;
Tectonic evolution of Tyrrhenian-Apenninic system
Definition of eruptive mechanisms and emplacement processes of pyroclastic flows
Study on magma propagation and its relationship with tectonic systems
Study of magnetic fabric in volcanic rocks and weakly deformed sediments
Studied areas
Colli Albani, Vesuvius, Stromboli, Cimini (Italy), central and southern Apennines (Italy), Azores islands (Portugal), Galan, Tuzgle, Cerro Blanco (Argentina), Cabo de Gata (Spain), Rif Chain (Morocco), Eastern Iceland, Mt. Unzen (Japan)
