Field of expertise: Chemistry of
atmospheric deposition and the geochemical cycling of ions in
the environment, with special attention to lake
acidification. In this field he has studied atmospheric
deposition in north-western Italy and its effects on sub-alpine
and alpine lakes. Besides, he considered lakes in remote areas,
such as Antarctica and the Himalayan Region. He has been in
charge of three EC projects (Air pollution effects on
terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems; Quantification and
susceptibility of Alpine lakes to acidification; Acidification
of remote mountain lakes: Palaeolimnology and Ecology,
STEP). Since 1988 he has been the scientist in charge of the
Italian network for the study of atmospheric deposition
chemistry, on behalf of the Italian Ministry of the
Environment. He participated in the COST 611 action as the
Italian expert. In 1991 he was appointed the Italian expert on
the Science Panel of the EC Concerted Action in the field of
ecosystem research. He has collaborated with the Bureau
Communitaire de Reference of the EC for the certification of
samples for water and rain analyses. He is author or co-author
of over 350 papers. |

Tasks:
CNRIII together with SPAA-LSA
is responsible for all field sampling at the Classification and
Validation lakes in the Central Southern Alps (CSA) Lake District:
CNRIII focuses on the Piedmont area of this district (c. 15
lakes). Special attention is given to lakes Paione Superiore and
Paione Inferiore, for which long-term data (15 years) on chemistry
and biology are available. CNRIII undertakes chemical analysis of
deposition and lake water from the CSA Piedmont sites;
phytoplankton; zooplankton; zoobenthos; diatoms; primary production
/ photosyntethic pigments. Other topics studied is the importance
of allochthonous versus autochthonous POC fraction in the organic
carbon pool and the sedimentation flux during ice-cover period,
thaw and ice-free season, through the use of an automatic
sedimentation trap system. In collaboration with NIVA CNRIII acts as the co-ordinating
centre for the analytical quality control of the chemistry analyses
of the whole project. The programme of pigment and carotenoids in
sediment investigation is also co-ordinated at CNRIII. The activity
foreseen in EMERGE is fully integrated with the research programmes
currently carried out at CNRIII and supported by the National
Research Council through the ordinary funded and special projects
(CNR Strategic Projects on the Svalbard and Himalayas). In addition
to the above national funds, EMERGE AQC activity is supported by
Ministero Italiano dell'Ambiente.
