Lascia il Segno: la cerimonia di premiazione del contest per gli studenti

14.11.2022

Venerdì 11 novembre la Biblioteca di Geoscienze ha ospitato la cerimonia di premiazione per il contest “Lascia il Segno” con cui le studentesse e gli studenti del Dipartimento di Geoscienze sono stati invitati a proporre idee per un murales che decorerà la parete di fronte all'accesso della Biblioteca. Lorenzo Doppiu, vincitore del contest con il progetto “What comes next” è stato premiato insieme a Rebecca Rajesh Peter che ha collaborato alla realizzazione grafica.

Geothermal energy for energy transition: numerical modelling of hydrothermal systems and deep heat exchangers

Speaker: Dott. Gianluca Gola, CNR - Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources, Pisa (Italy) - Giovedì 24 Novembre - ore 16,30 | Aula Arduino

24.11.2022

Geothermal energy, defined as the thermal energy stored in the Earth, is considered a critical renewable energy source for the future, capable of contributing to environmentally friendly carbon-neutral energy conversion. To evaluate the underground geothermal potential, the knowledge of the temperature distribution with depth is a key aspect.

Ground-based radar interferometry Principles, applications and future developments - Seminario di "Avvio al Lavoro"

Speaker: Dott. Alberto Michelini, IDS GeoRadar s.r.l., Pisa (Italy) - Giovedì 10 Novembre - ore 16,30 | Aula Arduino

Ground-based radar interferometry (GBRI) is a remote sensing imaging technique based on coherent radar systems, which can measure not only the amplitude, but also the phase of the microwave signals. The phase measurements can then be exploited to derive information on the deformation and topography of the measured scene.

Turbidity currents and seabed infrastructures: insights from numerical models - Seminario di "Avvio al lavoro"

Speaker: Dott. Carlos Pirmez, CEO and founder of Weather Water Sand Srl, Genova (Italy) - Giovedì 3 Novembre – ore 16,30 | Aula Arduino

03.11.2022

Turbidity currents are known to travel hundreds to thousands of kilometers into the deep ocean, reaching velocities as high as 20 m/s with potentially catastrophic consequences to infrastructure installed along their path. The submarine cable industry has experienced their impact since the first cables have been installed across the Atlantic, for instance after the 1929 Grand Banks earthquake, and several other events across the globe since then.
