👉Until recently, polar ice sheets and high-altitude glaciers could retain memory of past climate change by recording the characteristics of the past atmosphere within their snow and ice layers, which are deposited over time. In this context, ice cores recovered from around the world still provide 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝟭 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀, allowing comparisons of modern anthropogenically driven climatic and environmental changes with natural past fluctuations.

He earned a degree in Environmental Sciences from Ca’ Foscari University of Venice in 1998 and a PhD in Oceanography, Atmosphere and Hydrology from the Laboratory of Glaciology and Environmental Geophysics at Joseph Fourier University in Grenoble, France, in 2004. From 2007 to 2022, he was a Principal Investigator and Lecturer at the Ohio State University in Columbus, USA, where he worked on paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental reconstructions using ice cores extracted from polar regions and from glaciers on the world’s highest mountains.
