Geophysics


The activity of the Group includes the monitoring and analysis of the variability of the Earth's ionosphere and geomagnetic field as well as the study of the water cycle and climate change impacts on Mediterranean water systems. Are noteworthy: The investigation of the variability of the ionosphere and the Earth's magnetic field caused by solar and geomagnetic activity. Global and Regional modeling of the main magnetic field and of its secular variation, including archaeomagnetic applications. The development of models for geomagnetic and ionospheric variations of solar origin and applications related to the effects of space weather. Physically based and large scale simulation of hydrological processes and their evolution under climate change.
