Camillo Silibello graduated in Physics from the University of Milan. As a co-founder of ARIANET, his professional and research activities, which began in the late 1980s, focus on numerical modeling, specifically in the design, development, and application of three-dimensional models to simulate the chemical and physical processes involving pollutants in the atmosphere. Within various research projects, he has contributed to the development of modules aimed at addressing gas-phase, liquid-phase, and aerosol chemical reactions, estimating natural emissions (such as volatile organic compounds emitted by vegetation and particles produced by wind action on soils and seas), and effectively integrating numerical model results with experimental information (data assimilation and data fusion techniques). In 2006, he was appointed by the Ministry of the Environment and Protection of Land and Sea as an expert in atmospheric pollution modeling to support the preparation of the “EMEP/TFMM Particulate Matter Assessment Report.” He also participated as a national expert in the COST Action TD1105-EuNetAir “European Network on New Sensing Technologies for Air-Pollution Control and Environmental Sustainability” and continues to be involved in the activities of European air quality groups. The results of these activities have been published and presented at national and international workshops and scientific conferences (https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Camillo_Silibello). He also serves as a reviewer for several international scientific journals.
