Introduction:
I am a PhD candidate at the University of Bologna. My research focuses on large-sample
hydrology, leveraging the potential of data from thousands of catchments around the globe as
inputs for rainfall-runoff models. I have a strong background in data analysis and numerical
computing, and I am passionate about applying these skills to advance our understanding of
hydrological processes. My recent work also involves estimating potential evaporation from
meteorological drivers, investigating the impact of different data sources and methods.
