Alberto Martilli

Alberto Martilli es Licenciado en Física por la Universitá Statale di Milano (Italia) y Doctor por EPFL (Escuela Politécnica Federal de Lausana, Suiza).

Alberto se licenció en física en 1995 por la Universidad de Milán (Italia), con un trabajo de fin de carrera sobre “Simulación atmosférica de mesoescala en terreno complejo” realizado en el marco de una estancia en el Joint Research Center de la Unión Europea de Ispra, y obtuvo su doctorado en 2001 por la Escuela Politécnica Federal de Lausana (Suiza) con una tesis intitulada “Development of an urban turbulent parameterization for mesoscale atmospheric models”. En los siguientes tres años realizó una estancia post-doctoral en la Universidad de British Columbia (Vancouver, Canadá) trabajando sobre simulación de la calidad del aire y meteorología en áreas costeras con topografía compleja. Desde 2005 trabaja en CIEMAT, y actualmente es Investigador Científico.

El trabajo de Alberto es motivado por un interés en la compresión de las interacciones entre las ciudades y la atmosfera. Lleva a cabo su investigación por medio de modelos numéricos que usa y desarrolla. En particular cabe destacar el trabajo de continua mejora de la parametrización urbana, creada en su tesis doctoral y que es ahora implementada en el modelo atmosférico WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting), gracias a: 1) la información obtenida de simulaciones microescala CFD, 2) la introducción de sub-modelos que representan el comportamiento energético de los edificios, 3)  la representación de medidas de adaptación al calentamiento global (vegetación en los techos y calles, paneles solares sobre techos, techos fríos, materiales especiales, etc.). El resultado esperado de su investigación es la creación de herramientas de modelización que ayuden en la optimización de la estructura de las ciudades para mejorar la calidad del aire y el confort térmico, reduciendo los gastos energéticos debidos al aire acondicionado y la calefacción, en el contexto de un clima que cambia.
