Tomas Lovato is a research Scientist at the Earth System modelling and Data Assimilation Division (ESYDA) working on the representation of marine biogeochemical processes through numerical models.
He has been involved in a variety of scientific publications focusing on ocean ecosystems dynamics ranging from coastal system, regional seas, and up to the global ocean scale, and is actively involved in the development of physical and biogeochemical community models (e.g., NEMO, BFM).
Tomas has been actively participating in the CMIP initiative since the 6th cycle and is one of the major responsible for the development of CMCC Earth System Model.
In past years, he participated in international research initiatives within the EU framework 7 projects (GREENSEAS, MedSEA, PERSEUS, MyOcean2), the Copernicus Marine Service regional modelling, a wide number of EU H2020 programs CRESCENDO, RESCUE, ACTNOW, NECCTON, SDGs-EYES, UPTAKE, as well as several national research programs.
