The seminar show how South American river systems created a template for this successful agricultural strategy, argue that ancient people managed soil using practices that are still employed today by Amazonian indigenous groups, and demonstrate the potential for carbon storage in anthropogenic soils. Along the way, the seminar will consider the climate sensitivity of rivers and some lessons from the past about sustainable tropical agriculture.

Currently we are increasingly surrounded by works and constructions that range from the most complex structures to the simplest, so much so that they can be defined as almost “ordinary”. Perhaps the habit of crossing a bridge or entering in a building, for those unfamiliar with the design sector, often leads to underestimate or not considering the difficulties faced during the design phase of the aforementioned works. Technical design is a fascinating but also complex world, bringing with it technical but also administrative difficulties. This seminar will offer a moment of discussion for all those interested in learning more about the field of planning and in particular the role of the geologist in this multidisciplinary activity, both in the private and in the public sector.

Advanced numerical modelling and remote sensing techniques can play a crucial role in the challenge of managing the risks caused by geohazards. Junaid Khan is a Ph.D. student from Pakistan who has just started his project at the Department of Geosciences of the University of Padua, in the framework of the Excellence Project "Geosciences for Sustainable Development", working on monitoring, mitigating and forecasting geohazards through A.I. techniques by using remote sensing optical and SAR data.
