Her research focuses on the interaction between natural and anthropogenic environments, aiming to enhance ecosystem health ανδ climate resilience by addressing soil health, the quality of inland and coastal waters, agri-livestock production systems, food safety and, consequently, human health. She specialises in biogeochemical cycles in Earth system, with emphasis on both abiotic and biotic environments, and in the use of MRV methodologies for the quantitative assessment of environmental impacts for the implementation of sustainable management policies. Her work integrates isotopic techniques, process-based models with AI tools, and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). She has participated in more than 34 national and European research projects, coordinating the scientific work in 13 of them, and has published over 35 scientific papers. Her work contributes to monitoring soil health and water quality, reducing environmental footprint, and supporting the implementation of sustainable policies aligned with the EU strategies for healthy soils, ecosystem restoration and the One Health approach.
