Research Interests
Ocean observations use cutting-edge technologies for sustained monitoring of coastal regions to understand the different processes that influence mixing and circulation and their variability, the impact of climate change and continued anthropogenic influences. With the PhD program focused my experience (and publications) in HF coastal radar acquisition, elaboration and analysis; working mostly on wave and wind parameters validation. During the post doc improving my research skills analysing and validating data retrieved by a multiplatform instrumentations as fixed buoy, ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler), satellite data and model simulations.
