CNR ISAFOM

Studio e analisi dei processi fisici, chimici e biologici che determinano il funzionamento e la dinamica degli agro-ecosistemi negli ambienti a clima mediterraneo, per il miglioramento quali-quantitativo delle produzioni, per l’ottimizzazione dell’uso delle risorse naturali, e per la valorizzazione delle funzioni dei sistemi agricoli e forestali. Sviluppo e applicazione di metodi di ricerca e di innovazioni tecnologiche avanzate per il monitoraggio e la previsione degli impatti e delle risposte degli ecosistemi agrari e forestali alle pressioni antropiche e climatiche.

L’ISAFOM afferisce al Dipartimento di Scienze Bio-Agroalimentari del CNR ed ha una "massa critica" di 89 unità ripartito tra le sedi di Portici - NA (sede centrale), Catania, Rende (CS), e Perugia.

Vincenzo Saponaro has a master in Ecobiology at the University of Rome (la Sapienza). He worked at the Department of Agriculture, Food and Environment (DAFE) of the Univerisity of Pisa in a project focused mostly on advancing the concept of hyperspectral phenotyping of plant stress, across a range of plant species and over a variety of stressors. Currently is a PhD student in Forest Ecology at the University of Tuscia (Viterbo) and at the Institute for Agricultural and Forestry Systems in the Mediterranean (ISAFOM-CNR) of Perugia to study the interactions between atmospheric ozone concentration and primary productivity exacerbate by climate change and to quantify potential damage to vegetation across Europe. He is fascinated by science and its power, he fights for Nature and Human Rights.
