معرفی
Prof. Attilio Sulli is a Full Professor in Earth and Marine Sciences at the University of Palermo. His research focuses on marine geology, tectonics, and geohazard analysis, with specific interests in the central Mediterranean and Latin America. He leads projects like SIRIPRO (seismic data analysis in Sicily) and MAGIC (marine geohazards assessment), collaborating with institutions such as INGV, CNR, and international universities. His work integrates sedimentology, seismostratigraphy, and coastal management, addressing topics like fluid escape processes, fault activity, and underwater landslide risks. He operates advanced laboratories for grain analysis and seismic interpretation, and provides third-party services in geological mapping and resource exploration.
Key collaborations include the National Oceanography Centre (UK), University of Malta, and Brazilian institutions like USP São Paulo. His research spans structural surveys of Sicily's stratigraphy, continental margin dynamics, and geochemical studies of mantle volatiles. Recent projects address tsunami hazard modeling, CO2 storage potential in marine basins, and paleoenvironmental reconstruction using isoradiometric methods.
Notable achievements include 3D Moho modeling in the Sicily Channel, thermal-structural modeling of fold-and-thrust belts, and the identification of pockmark-fluid linkages. His work bridges academic research with applied geology, informing coastal management and energy resource assessments.
