Francesco Ulloa Cedamanos

Dr. Francesco Ulloa Cedamanos is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Research Institute for Environment and Livelihoods (RIEL), affiliated with the Faculty of Science and Technology. His research focuses on climate change and anthropogenic impacts on river water quality, carbon and sulfur cycling in karst hydrosystems.

• PhD (2021): Environmental Biogeochemistry, University of Toulouse
• Master (2018): Karst Systems Hydrology, Université Paris-Saclay

His expertise spans hydro(geo)chemistry, hydrogeology, geophysics, and statistical analysis of surface/groundwater systems. Recent work examines:

• CO₂ cycling in karst headwaters
• Long-term hydrochemical trends in critical zones
• Flood event impacts on stream chemistry
• Groundwater contamination early warning systems

His research aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals for environmental protection and water quality monitoring. Collaborations span France, Spain, and China, with 8 peer-reviewed publications since 2020.
