National and international projects
2023-2025: "SpatiAlly Resolved veLocity and wAves from SAR images in laKES (SARLAKES)", PRIN (Progetto di Rilevante Interesse Nazionale) - Italian Ministry of Research. Partners: CNR-IREA (coordinator), UniTrento, University of Brescia.
The SARLAKES Project will develop an innovative, powerful and flexible tool for the accurate estimation of water dynamics in medium/large-size lakes thorugh the exploitation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) products.
2021-2024: "Impacts of connecting Norwegian hydropower to continental Europe and the UK (HydroConnect)", Research Council of Norway. Partners: SINTEF Energy Research, NTNU, Fraunhofer IEE from Germany, UniTrento.
The project aims at answering the following research questions:
- How can Norwegian hydropower contribute to the decarbonisation of the European power system?
- What are the consequences on the Norwegian power system of delivering balancing services to Europe?
- What are the implications of participating in several markets on operations and income of hydropower plants?
- What will be the impacts of future hydropower operations on environmental conditions in reservoirs?
PhyLL is working on the 4th question with a specific focus on the impacts of pumped-storage operations on the ecosystems and on the stability of the ice cover in reservoirs.
2021-2023: ALPLAKES. European Space Agency (ESA). Partners: Eawag (Switzerland), CNR-IREA, UniTrento.
Monitoring and forecasting of lakes across the European alpine region -- Alplakes is an open-source esa funded research project aimed at providing operational products based on a combination of remote sensing and hydrodynamic models for a number of European lakes.
2020-2021: “Development of an integrated monitoring and modelling system for Ypacaraí Lake (Paraguay) (MOLYP)”, Consejo Nacional De Ciencia Y Tecnología (CONACYT), Paraguay. Partners: Nuestra Señora de la Asunción Catholic University (Paraguay), UniTrento.

Cluster Garda
Cluster Garda
In 2017, a collaboration (Cluster Garda) was established among universities, research centres, environmental protection agencies, and other institutions, interested in studying Lake Garda (Italy). As a result of the discussion, a document (Carta di Verona) was signed setting some principles for sharing ideas and efforts to improve the knowlegde of the lake.
Two scientific events were organized: the Lake GARDa ENvironmental System (GARDEN) workshops.
