Ilaria Baneschi
She is a researcher specialized in environmental geochemistry and biogeochemistry of aquatic system and sediments, with a focus on human impact.She has a broad range of research interests in the aqueous chemistry, analytical environmental chemistry, isotope geochemistry and biogeochemistry of sediment and aqueous environments.
Her research focuses mainly on the study of biogeochemical processes of carbon and nitrogen cycle in terrestrial and lacustrine environments related to sediment-water-air changes, with attention to sources and transport of trace element and pollutants.
Her current scientific activity investigates chemical and biochemical processes that occur in lakes and wetlands in order to interpret changes in the geochemistry lake sediment, to identify human impact and to reconstruct environmental change from present back to the Holocene; the application of the stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen and organic geochemistry as tracers to study geochemical processes and climate.
