I am an atmospheric modeler fascinated by the powerful nature of our planet’s atmosphere that drives the various phenomena in which I am interested.
My research activity spans almost a decade, dating back in 2007 when I obtained my MSc Environmental Physics. Although my interests have shifted over the time, my research activity shows considerable continuity since my principal research directions remained unchanged. These are focused on numerical modeling and, in particular, numerical weather prediction and regional climate modeling. Hence, my research is in principle based on the exploitation of numerical models for studying in detail the atmospheric environment. Areas of special focus include severe weather, the urban environment (heat island effect), regional climate, renewable resources (wind and solar energy), human-biometeorology, and most recently fire-atmosphere interactions.
