Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra

The school is open to undergraduate, graduate, doctoral and PhD students in scientific disciplines, as well as professionals involved in the study and management of land and sea. Topics include the geological features of the unique active volcanic area of the island of Panarea, its biological components adapted to naturally acidified vents systems, and the characterization of hydrothermal fluids. 

Participants will be trained in multi-parameter monitoring techniques and the definition of experimental protocols for the sampling and study of CO₂-rich fluids and benthic communities, with particular emphasis on assessing the effects of climate change and ocean acidification on organisms, communities, and ecosystem/habitat, especially on the seagrass meadows of Posidonia oceanica.
