Evelina Dallara is a Ph.D. candidate of the Earth Science Department at the University of Pisa. Her research project is based on the study of the water recharge and the fluid circulation in the Larderello geothermal system, in particular in the areas of the Le Biancane (Monterotondo Marittimo). Furthermore, another part of her Ph.D. project concerns the analysis of past fluid circulation in the reservoir. For the first purpose, fumaroles and water samples are collected and analysed for chemical and isotopic composition, whereas, in order to infer the composition of the past fluids, fluid inclusion studies are carried out.
Evelina has graduated in Earth Sciences at the University of Pisa, with a thesis focused on the application of thermobarometers, and, after that, she took a master’s degree in geophysics at the University of Granada, studying the volcano-tectonic seismic activity. Finally, in 2021 she got her MSc degree in Geological sciences and technologies at the University of Pisa, with a thesis on the analyses of apatite minerals from Volcano, Italy, and in 2022 she started her Ph.D. at the same University.
Her interests are geothermal energy, geochemistry and trying to divulgate these topics in a more interesting and tempting way.
She also likes to gather people, especially young researchers, who work on this topic, in fact, with other Ph.D. colleagues, she organized the GeothermiX Conference in Autumn 2023.
