T45. Geosciences revamp and sustainable planning strategies: multidisciplinarity is the way

-

Congressi SGI-SIMP

Worldwide, under the ongoing pressure of climate change, earth and environmental scientists are facing increasingly challenging problems due to the overexploitation of natural resources, land consumption, overpopulation and pollution (in all its forms). Earth and environmental sciences play a major role in terms of mitigation risk strategies, land and soil regulation. Despite policy gaps and useless communication, environmental scientists should be really involved in the planning of the sustainable management of our planet. To better understand the complexity of geological phenomena and constrain potential impacts due to human activities, the most effective studies rely upon a multidisciplinary approach. The virtuous collaboration of different geological and environmental disciplines may reasonably solve the current impasse in environmental policies.
This session is open to researchers (also including PhD students) and specialists dealing with multifaceted case studies and approaches. We particularly encourage contributions planned as follows: i) site characterization (sedimentology, stratigraphy, geochemistry, etc..), ii) modelling (hydrogeological, geological, etc..) and iii) environmental monitoring (remote sensing etc..). Participants should document how cooperation between different branches of geosciences, but also contributions from additional disciplines (biology, physics, computer science etc...), may represent a powerful methodology to solve short-term goals and make solid long-term plans following the sustainability concept.
 
CONVENERS: Bruno Campo (Università di Bologna), Nicolas Greggio (Università di Bologna), Beatrice Maria Sole Giambastiani (Università di Bologna), Sonia Silvestri (Università di Bologna).
