Riccardo De Ritis is a geophysicist with expertise in acquiring, processing, modelling and interpreting airborne/ground magnetic-gravity data and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). His fields of expertise are (1) geophysical and geological data integration in GIS environments for a multidisciplinary interpretative approach and (2) deciphering the crustal structure in different geological contexts. His fields of interest are (1) present and past marine and submarine volcanic activity related to active geodynamic environments and (2) sinkhole occurrences risk in urban and land areas using remote-sensed data, geophysical prospection and borehole drillings.
