Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolValerio Poggi is an engineering seismologist and applied geophysics researcher with nine years of experience bridging academic research and practical seismic-hazard applications. He holds a PhD from ETH Zurich and has held research and teaching roles at ETH, GEM, OGS and the University of Pavia, leading work on ambient-vibration signal processing, surface-wave analysis, inverse problems and numerical site-response modelling. Valerio has contributed to high-profile national and EU projects—such as Swiss COGEAR, SUIHAZ, PRP and NERIES/SHARE—and advised on probabilistic seismic hazard for critical infrastructure including nuclear sites and waste disposal. His work focuses on characterizing the near-surface across scales, from microzonation to regional hazard assessment, with particular expertise in diffuse wave-field analysis. Colleagues value his ability to translate complex geophysical methods into actionable seismic-hazard products for industry and policy. Based in Friuli–Venezia Giulia, he combines rigorous academic publishing with hands-on field and modelling experience that often uncovers subtle local site effects missed by standard approaches.
