Gaetano Sardina

Professor at Fluid Dynamics

Gaetano Sardina is a Professor at the division of fluid mechanics working at the interface between mechanical engineering and environmental sciences. Examples of research projects include the problem of urban heat island effects and the microplastic transport in marine environments. In 2023, he received an ERC Consolidator grant to investigate the effects of turbulence in mixed-phase clouds, complex atmospheric three-phase systems containing suspended ice particles, supercooled water droplets, and water vapor, responsible for most of the precipitations reaching the Earth’s surface.
