Diego Jacopino
Diego is a Civil Engineer at Politecnico di Milano, with a master's degree in Hydraulic Engineering. He is currently a research fellow at DICA Department. He works in the field of mountain hydrology, with a focus on extreme precipitation, and climate change impacts thereby.
Lucia Ferrarin
Lucia is an Environmental Engineer at Politecnico di Milano (2022). She started (November 2022) a PhD in Hydraulic Engineering in DICA Dept. Her field of study so far covered the dynamics of snow field, interpretation via remote sensing and ground based tools, and effects upon hydrology of high altitude catchments. She is now investigating Climate Attribution methods, i.e. to identify climate change impacts upon probability and characteristics of extreme events.
Sonia Morgese
Sonia is a Civil Engineer at Politecnico di Milano (2022). She started (December 2022) a PhD in Hydraulic Engineering @ Univerasity of Pavia, in fulfillment in DICA Dept of Politecnico. She studied hitherto climate change impact upon hydrology in Alpine regions and fallout thereby upon vegetation and pasture systems dynamics. Her PhD covers Urban-Water-Food-Energy (UWFE) nexus under global and climate change.
Elena Prando
Elena is an Environmental Engineer at Politecnico di Milano (2023). She started (January 2024) cooperating with the personnel of Climate-Lab DICA Dept in the field of hydrogeological risk, and of climate change effects upon hydropower production, especially in high altitude catchments. She is now cooperating to research under the umbrella of the PRIN Project CCH-Alps.
