I come from the Montiferru area — a volcanic complex in west Sardinia, a Mediterranean island with a landscape shaped by millions of years of geological history.
Despite being well studied since the early 19th century, the volcanic history of this complex remained poorly characterized, with most existing knowledge dating back to the 1970s. I grew up in this landscape, and I could sense there was something still to be discovered here: I decided to bet on it!
My MSc thesis became a full geological and volcanological reinvestigation of the Montiferru Volcanic Complex — the work that would eventually lead to the volcano-structural map you see below.
The map is the result of six years of work — from my first field surveys in 2019 during my MSc thesis, through continuous refinement with my Supervisors, to its final publication in December 2025 as part of my PhD. Every layer, symbol, and cartographic choice was rendered entirely by me, using QGIS and Inkscape.
The result of my bet? We described for the first time debris avalanches, calderas, and ore deposits that had gone unnoticed for over a century of scientific study — and introduced 12 new geological units to the map.

In July 2021, a severe wildfire swept through the Montiferru area — one of the largest in the island's recorded history. What followed was not just a burned land, but the beginning of a cascade of geohazards: rock erosion, rockfalls, soil erosion, post-fire debris flows.
After being evacuated because of the fire, I was back on site the following morning to start document everything. My work focused on understanding what was happening, when, why — and how to turn that understanding into actionable information for decision-makers.
