Research Interests
I graduated in Biology and subsequently specialized in Marine Ecology, obtaining the qualification to the profession of Biologist in 2018. My research activity over the years has focused on the study of the larval stages of demersal, meso and pelagic fish species and the fluctuation of fish stocks. The participation in various oceanographic campaigns carried out in the Strait of Sicily allowed me to acquire skills on the use of the main planktonic samplers (Bongo 40, Bongo 90, MPS, Calvet and WP2) and to collect data on the distribution and formation of neritic larval assemblages and pelagics by analyzing their relationships with the main oceanographic variables. In parallel with the marine research activities, I participated in bird ringing campaigns, especially as part of the Small Islands Project, to monitor migratory routes and the phenology of seasonal movements of numerous species, paying particular attention to long-term migrants distance, who spend the winter in sub-Saharan areas. Furthermore, since the fragile ecosystem of the Mediterranean islands is strongly threatened, through these activities we want to analyze what is the functional role assumed by the islands towards the birds that stop there. This can be understood thanks to the study of the physiological conditions of animals during the different stages of transition to Europe. Since 2022, my PhD activities have been focused on the study of biodegradable bioplastics as an alternative to stockings used in mussel farming, comparing the times and methods of degradation in environments and farming systems with different chemical-physical characteristics.
