The real value of WARMCOASTS is not just the science. It’s the people — researchers from all around the world, like a jazz band playing one beautiful symphony. 🌍🎷 👉 Full video: https://t.co/IyVwuzlbdY

Were waves stronger during the Last Interglacial? 🌊 For surfers 🏄♂️, that sounds exciting. For coasts, it’s dangerous. Some places show more frequent swells, but the jury is still out. 👉 Full video: https://t.co/IyVwuzlbdY

Did sea level oscillate during the Last Interglacial? 🌊 Evidence suggests maybe. With coral reefs as natural archives and nearly 50,000 simulations, results point to multiple peaks — rise, pause/drop, then a short second rise. 🪸 👉 Full video: https://t.co/IyVwuzkDoq

We used to think sea level during the Last Interglacial was 5–10 m higher. Now we know it was “only” 2–5 m. 🌊 Sounds like good news? Even 1 meter today could be catastrophic. 👉 Full video: https://t.co/IyVwuzlbdY

Cosa si fa con 1,5 milioni di euro di un progetto @ERC_Research ? stipendi, viaggi, dati, analisi di laboratorio e amministrazione. La ricerca si costruisce così: persone e conoscenza. 🔬🌍 #EuropeanResearchCouncil #ricerca #scienza Full video: https://t.co/IyVwuzkDoq

After 5 years of #WARMCOASTS 🌊 We found sea level in the Last Interglacial was +2–5 m, not +5–10. Sounds like good news? Even +1 m today would endanger coasts & millions of lives. ▶️ Full story here: https://t.co/IyVwuzkDoq

The U.S. East Coast is crowded with cities 🏙️—finding undisturbed sediments felt impossible. Until we spotted a quiet field… with cows 🐄. There we uncovered ancient dunes & beaches 🌊—hidden stories of sea-level change. ▶️ Full 12-min doc here: https://t.co/IyVwuzlbdY

From Venice to Florida ✈️ We set up a GPR—radar that sees beneath the surface. It revealed buried ancient beaches 🌊, clues of past sea-level change. ▶️ Full story in our YouTube doc. https://t.co/IyVwuzlbdY

Meet WALIS: the World Atlas of Last Interglacial Shorelines 🌍 Built with €1.5M from #WARMCOASTS, it lets us travel 125,000 years back to vanished coasts & rising seas 🌊 🎥 Watch the 12-min doc on YouTube. https://t.co/IyVwuzkDoq

We spent €1.5M on #WARMCOASTS 💶 To answer 3 big questions: 🌊 Was sea level higher in the Last Interglacial? ⚡ Did it change faster than today? 💥 Were waves stronger? Past answers for our coastal future. Full story on YT. https://t.co/IyVwuzkDoq

A paper from our @ERC_Research project WARMCOASTS. This time we manage to merge models that are typically used in coastal engineering to get a glimpse of past sea-level changes. I think that the best part is the open-access code we provide! @CaFoscari

The scammer is at it again, today they asked money (about 4 k) from someone in my research network. My emails always come from my university address, so please report and send me the scam email if you get contacted.

So, this is a first for me. Someone is impersonating me in my capacity as INQUA Commission president. Beware any message from this individual and report as phishing. I only send work emails from my official @CaFoscari account.

How does a scientist spend a Tuesday morning? Making a reconstruction in Blender (with the help of ChatGPT) of a cliff site close to the French border, from more than 1000 aerial nadir and oblique photos.

It took a while but it was worth the wait! See here the latest paper by @KarlaRubioSand within the @ERC_Research project WARMCOASTS @CaFoscari and University of Bremen. We have something cool to show on Patagonian shorelines. https://t.co/0U9pdG3Uru

I am honoured to know that I will contribute to the growth of the next generation of environmental scientists, coordinating the Environmental Sciences degree program @CaFoscari. Nothing changes, I am still madly in love with the big blue. See you out there. /end

Today, I cherish this wonderful trip I had, as I embark on the next step. I was appointed Full Professor at @CaFoscari, and I will continue to share my love for the ocean, for science and for this wonderful and unique planet we have. 2/3
