Sergio Calabrese

Sergio Calabrese is an Associate Professor in the Department of Earth and Marine Sciences at the University of Palermo. His research focuses on geochemistry, volcanology, and environmental science, particularly analyzing trace elements and gas dynamics in atmospheric deposition, volcanic systems, and hydrothermal environments.

His work spans diverse geographic regions including Sicily, Greece, Argentina, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, with recent publications covering topics such as volcanic gas plumes, urban particulate matter, and biogeochemical processes in extreme ecosystems. He actively participates in international geochemistry training programs and field studies.

Publications highlight expertise in atmospheric deposition characterization, trace element transport, and volcanic-hazard assessment. He employs both traditional geochemical methods and innovative technologies like low-cost sensors and high-resolution interferometers for environmental monitoring.
