Researcher at the DICA department of Politecnico di Milano
Davide Danilo Chiarelli obtained a MSc degree in Civil Engineering in 2013. At the moment he is a researcher at the DICA department of Politecnico di Milano, where he completed his PhD in July 2018 with a research based on Water and Food Security titled “The Water-Land-Food Nexus”. The main topics he is analyzing include the following: sustainability in the use of natural resources (i.e. water and fertile soil); hydrological effects of land use changes and deforestation, and its related consequences as land erosion and mass movements; crop water demand under present conditions and under climate change scenarios. He strongly believes in the importance of preserving our planet and its (its, not ours!) limited resources and how to achieve this goal it is necessary to start from a good knowledge of the problem and to educate future generations.
