ENEA climate modeling researchers have developed an advanced mathematical model, called MED16, capable of reproducing as faithfully as possible the VARIABILITY of Mediterranean Sea LEVEL, from the past to the future. "The latest 2021 IPCC report points out that average projections of sea level rise are not accurate enough for marginal basins like the Mediterranean, which require specific models. Our study finally fills this scientific gap ", explained Gianmaria Sannino, head of the ENEA laboratory of Climate Modeling and Impacts and author of the new study Modelling present and future climate in the Mediterranean Sea: a focus on sea-level change.

"Maintaning an independent launch capability is crucial for economic, strategic and safety reasons: entrusting some particularly important loads or satellites to a foreign company may not guarantee the necessary confidentiality and timeliness requirements. The same would happen if a satellite is no longer used and it is necessary to replace it quickly ”.

How is circular economy – a concept increasingly used and sometimes even misused- perceived? What are its most important actions? What priority should be given to actions such as 'recycle', 'recover', 'redesign' towards achieving a circular economy? These and other questions are part of the international "imagine circularity" survey, online until April 19, which aims at understanding how people perceive and what is the vision of the circular economy at a global level and at improving its knowledge and dissemination
