Research interests
I am a PostDoc research fellow working on SENSUM project (smart SENSing of landscapes Undergoing hazardous hydrogeologic Movement). I am a water resources engineer with an interest in landslides and woody debris transport. I worked at the University of Padova investigating the long-term evolution of tidal channels and meander bends morphology by the use of numerical models.
