Biography

Mauro Guglielmin was born on April 20, 1965. Received Masters degree in Geological Sciences in Milan University, Ph.D. in Earth Sciences in Parma University with the topic: “Methods of permafrost mapping and periglacial geomorphology” on July 1994. The Ph.D. was focused on different techniques to detect mountain permafrost occurrence and monitor changes in the thickness of the active layer such as BTS (Bottom Temperature of winter Snow cover), STG (Shallow Temperature of Ground in summer time), geoelectrical prospection and remote sensing techniques.
He participated to the X, XII, XIV, XV, XVI, XVII, XVIII, XX, XXI Italian expedition in Antarctica working in Northern and Southern Victoria Land and in Maritime Antarctica (King George Island, J. Ross Island, Signy Island). He participated also to 2 scientific expedition in High Arctic (Ellesmere Island, Canada and Svalbard Island, Norway), in cooperation also with Istituto Antarctico Argentino, British Antarctic Survey, Ottawa University and Waikato University.
He is project leader of the Italian Antarctic project named “Permafrost and Climate Change in Antarctica since 2002. He is Deputy President of the EEGG “Permafrost and Periglacial Processes” of the SCAR and responsible of the working group on active layer and permafrost monitoring of the EOI “ANTPAS”. He is also responsible for Antarctica of the EOI “TSP” (Thermal state of permafrost) leaded by J. Brown.
He was involved in the EU funded project named on PACE (Permafrost and Climate Change in Europe) between 1998 and 2001 and he is member of standing committee of the European Science Foundation Project “PACE21”.
He is member of the Italian Glaciological Committee and of Italian Geomorphologist Association.
He has been co-chairman of the Periglacial Geomorphology Session of the VI International Conference on Permafrost (Beijng, July 1993 ), of the Antarctic Permafrost session of the 1th European Permafrost Conference (Rome, march 2001), of the Antarctic Geomorphology session of the VI International Conference of Geomorphology (Zaragozza, September 2005).
Mauro Guglielmin is Professor of Geomorphology and Physical Geography of the Sciences Faculty of University of Insubria in Varese Italy since 2004.

 

Qualifications and awards

 Associate Professor of Geomorphology and Physical Geography since 2004.
 

Research interests

 Research activities are mainly developed in the mountain environment of the Italian alps and in the polar environment. In these environments different research topics are developing:

Permafrost and climate change; Relationships between permafrost and ecosystems; Permafrost and slope stability, Periglacial processes and landforms; Weathering processes (especially in criotic or polar conditions), Permafrost modelling and mapping.

Some research on quaternary geology of the Italian Alps and paleoclimate reconstruction during Holocene and Pleistocene are also in progress.
 

Teaching experience and appointments

 Associate Professor of Geomorphology and Physical Geography since 2004.
Lecturer of Geology, Geography, Physical Geography, Geomorphology and Glaciology in different Universities (Roma 3, Ferrara, Insubria Varese) since 2000
