César Mösso Aranda is an Associate Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), BarcelonaTech. He holds a Ph.D. in Marine Sciences from UPC (2004) and has over 20 years of experience in coastal engineering, physical oceanography, and climate change adaptation. His research focuses on coastal hydrodynamics, sediment transport, and the implementation of Nature-based Solutions (NBS) to mitigate erosion and flood risks under climate change scenarios. He actively participates in large-scale EU-funded projects, such as REST-COAST (H2020 Green Deal), dealing with systemic restoration and river-coast connectivity, and has contributed to hydromorphological modeling and coastal monitoring initiatives. In addition to his research, Dr. Mösso is deeply committed to higher education. He is the founder and coordinator of the Erasmus Mundus Master in Coastal and Marine Engineering and Management (CoMEM+) and coordinates the Interuniversity Doctoral Program in Marine Sciences. He has authored more than 60 peer-reviewed papers and numerous technical reports for port authorities and coastal administrations, transferring scientific knowledge to practical management solutions.
