Sara RUBINETTI

Sara RUBINETTI is an Adjunct Professor at the Department of Environmental Sciences, Informatics and Statistics, Ca' Foscari University of Venice. She holds a PhD in Physics and Astrophysics (University of Turin, 2018) and a Master’s in Physics (University of Turin, 2013). Her research focuses on climate modeling, atmospheric processes, and marine circulation dynamics, with applications to coastal management and planetary science.

Education:

• PhD in Physics and Astrophysics (2018), University of Turino
• Master’s in Physics (2013), University of Turino
• Visiting PhD Student at ETH Zurich (2016)

Research Interests:

• Lightning detection in Earth and Venus atmospheres
• Numerical simulations of coastal marine circulation (FESOM-C model)
• Climate variability analysis using spectral methods
• Solar activity reconstruction from cosmogenic isotopes

Recent Research Focus: Her 2023 publications emphasize climate change impacts on coastal systems (Venice Lagoon), Mediterranean Sea dynamics, and extreme hydrological events. She also explores Venus atmospheric processes via radar modeling.

Awards:

• Abilitazione Scientifica Nazionale (II Fascia) in Geophysics (2023–2034)

Teaching:

• Climate Modelling and Monitoring (PhD and Master’s courses)

Collaborations: Projects with CNR-ISAC, Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), and CORILA consortium on climate adaptation, marine protected areas, and paleoenvironmental reconstructions.
