Dr. Jacopo Aguzzi has more than 20 years of research experience in integrating the study of biological rhythms into deep-sea ecological monitoring practices. The overarching goal of his research is to relate the presence (and behaviour) of marine species to overall changes in sample richness and biodiversity at different temporal scales and under environmental control regimes. His research is presently focussing on the establishment of best monitoring practices and AI routines to extract ecological indicators with fixed and mobile robotic autonomous platforms. The use of cabled observatories, crawlers, AUVs and neutrino telescope is carried out to gather intensive spatio-temporal data picturing animal movements and interactions in oceanic three-dimensional water column and seabed scenarios. To date, he has participated in the publication of 166 research articles, 6 book chapters, and in more than 200 National and International conferences. He is the manager for the “ecological monitoring” and “citizen science” of the EMSO Testing-Site OBSEA (www.obsea.es). From 2016 to 2019, he was a Scientific Advisor for the Ocean Network Canada (ONC) for the Section “Life in the Environments of the Northeast Pacific Ocean and the Salish Sea”. He is presently participating in different international Committee Bodies, for example, the Working Group on Nephrops Surveys (WGNEPS) of the International Council for the Exploitation of the Sea (ICES).
