During my studies in chemistry at the University of Pavia, I have shown interest in the role of anthropogenic pollutants in the environment. Since then, this interest evolved and brought me to undertake a PhD on the role of black carbon in the climatic system between the University of Grenoble in France and the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. With various postdoctoral experiences between France and Germany, I investigated the presence of black carbon particles in the Arctic, and its interaction with radiation and clouds, making use of ground and airborne observations (Alfred Wegener Institute, DE) and chamber simulations (Laboratoire Interuniversitaire des Systèmes Atmosphériques, FR; Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, DE). Recently the ITINERIS project gave me the chance to explore the relationship between black carbon particles and atmospheric dynamics, using long-term observations conducted at the Monte Cimone. In the frame of the ITINERIS seminars, I will present my past work and discuss my current research activities at the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences and Climate in Bologna.
