Highlights
XXIII Giornata mondiale dell'Acqua 2024
On March 22, 2024, for the United Nations' XXIII World Water Day, the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei hosts a conference on Adaptation to extreme events in the hydrological cycle: floods and droughts. Despite the title, I was invited to give a talk on Landslides and landslide risk in Italy (in Italian, sorry!). A recording of the conference is available on the Lincei channels.
Frane. Caratteristiche e Previsioni
At the February 8, 2024 monthly gathering of the Accademia dei Lincei I gave a talk (in Italian, sorry!) on landslide characteristics and current prediction capabilities. The presentation is available here and a recording of the talk and the discussion here.
My take on flood and landslide risk in a warming climate and related issues
At the 2023 conference of the CNR Department of Earth System Sciences and Technologies for the Environment, I gave a talk (in Italian, sorry!) on geo-hydrological hazards in a warming climate, with insights on how to organise future research on related hazards and risks. A recording of the talk is available here.

In a new "perspective" article in NHESS, I outline my views on the predictability of landslide populations caused by different triggers, and I provide recommendations on what to do to improve our ability to predict landslide populations. The article appeared in a special issue of NHESS to celebrate the journal's 20th anniversary. Happy birthday HNESS!
EGU Sergey Soloviev Medal
The news of the Soloviev Medal came with an email, as unexpected as it was welcome. I have spent a good part of my research career dealing with natural hazards, particularly geo-hydrological hazards, and I am happy that the EGU has recognised my work, which is also that of the many colleagues I have worked with. You can read the motivation for the award here, and an interview for the EGU Natural hazards blog here.
