SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY
- Planetary Habitability: study of geosphere-biosphere-climate interactions through zero and one-dimensional EBM (Energy Balance Model).
- Geophysical fluids dynamics: numerical simulations of convection for high Prandtl number fluids, focused on the Earth’s mantle dynamics, with particular attention to the rheology of the system, to phase transitions and to connections with the deep carbon cycle.
