报告人简介：
Alvise Finotello is Assistant Professor at the Department of Geosciences, University of Padova. He received B.S. and M.S. degrees in Civil Hydraulic Engineering in 2010 and 2013, respectively, and a Ph.D. degree in Earth Sciences (cum laude) in 2017 from the University of Padova. In 2015 and 2016, he has been a visiting scientist at the St. Anthony Falls Laboratory, University of Minnesota. Between 2017 and 2021, he held a postdoctoral research fellowship at the Dept. of Geosciences - University of Padova (2017-2018), at the Center for Lagoon Hydrodynamics and Morphodynamics (CIMoLa) - University of Padova (2019), and at the Dept. of Environmental Sciences, Informatics, and Statistics - Ca' Foscari University of Venice (2020-2021).
Combining field surveys, remote sensing analyses, numerical modeling, and physical laboratory experiments, Alvise investigates the morphodynamic evolution of tidal channels and tidal channel networks in tidally-influenced estuarine and fluvio-deltaic environments, as well as the intertwined ecogeomorphological feedbacks between tidal currents, sea-level changes, wind waves, and vegetation dynamics and their effects on the long term evolution of tidal salt-marshes.
In addition, he is also interested in understanding the ecomorphodynamic evolution of meandering rivers, a relevant topic with global implications for stream and wetland restoration, land management, infrastructure design, oil exploration and production, carbon sequestration, flood-risk mitigation, and planetary paleoenvironmental reconstruction.
