Dr Luigi Tosi is a researcher at National Research Council – Institute of Geosciences and Earth Resources (Padova, Italy) in applied geology, physical geography and geomorphology. His main researches focus on coastal hydrogeology, particularly natural and man-induced land subsidence, relative sea level rise and salt water intrusion. Additional research interests regard Late Quaternary geology, geological and geomorphological mapping of coastal areas and underwater hydro-geomorphology. Dr Tosi has done extensive work on characterizing land subsidence of the Venice coastland including the use of multi-band SAR based interferometry products for monitoring ground movements in heterogeneous transitional coastal environments.
