Tutorials of Science of Climate Change and Climate Actions 2022
"Science of Climate Change and Climate Actions" is a soft skill course at the University of Bologna. It will be taught in English for a total of 24 hours (3 credits) in the second semester, by me and other expert colleagues from other Departments. Details are given here. Access is given to a maximum number of 200 students. The study plan is as follows:
Tutorials of Mountain Rivers Training (Costruzioni Idrauliche M - 2021-2022 - in Italian)
Web site providing information, tutorials and videos for the master degree course on Mountain Rivers Training. The web page is in Italian.
Tutorials of Coastal Engineering - 2021
The course on Coastal Engineering is included in the study plan of the master degree program in Off-shore Engineering at the University of Bologna. The part of course that I am teaching counts 12 hours of lectures. The teacher will make extensive use of interactivity, with the options illustrated below. Lectures include about 4 hours dedicated to solving exercises by using the personal computer, by collaborative work by students and teacher. Students will be kindly asked to bring their own personal computer to solve the exercises.
Tutorials of Sustainable Design of Water Resources Systems - 2021
Sustainable Design of Water Resources Systems is concentrating on the management of water resources in the presence of increasing anthropogenic pressure and climate change. The course will be taught during 48 hours of frontal teaching, including lectures given by the teacher and exercises developed by collaborative work by students and the teacher. The purpose of the course is to provide an overview of modern techniques for estimating design variables for water resources systems in the presence of human impact.
Tutorials of Harbour Engineering - 2021
The course on Harbour Engineering focuses on design of harbors and coast management. The part of course that I am teaching counts 32 hours of lectures. The teacher will make extensive use of interactivity, with the options illustrated below. Lectures include about 6 hours dedicated to solving exercises by using the personal computer, by collaborative work by students and teacher. Students will be kindly asked to bring their own personal computer to solve the exercises. Students are kindly advised to speak with me if bringing their own personal computer turns out to be not possible.

Lectures in streaming from March 2nd 2020 - An excellent result
On March 2nd the University of Bologna will gradually make lectures available in streaming. The emergency induced by COVID-19 at the global level, and in particular in the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy, has suggested the use of streaming to overcome the barriers to traveling in some regions and countries.

The Bluecat Home Page
Bluecat is a new method that Demetris Koutsoyiannis and myself recently proposed to estimate uncertainty of hydrological predictions. Bluecat comes with an open source and user friendly software to support its application. The original idea was elaborated by Demetris during his stay in Bologna in 2019. Formalisation of the method and software preparation were as all of my working hours from February 2020 to May 2021 were absorbed by the management of the COVID19 emergency in the academia.
