Dr. Domenico M. Doronzo is a volcanologist at Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia - Osservatorio Vesuviano, Italy. He received a B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degree in Earth Sciences from Università degli Studi di Bari Aldo Moro, Italy. Investigation specialties related to those degrees are physical volcanology, experimental and computational fluid dynamics, petrology, and natural hazards. Then, he worked in volcanology and sedimentology, fluid dynamics and combustion, environmental sciences, and rock physics in the United States, Mexico, Spain, and Italy. In particular, he received the Rittmann Medal from Associazione Italiana di Vulcanologia, which is awarded to the best young Italian volcanologists. His research interests focus on integrating theory, field measurements, numerical modelling, laboratory and outdoor experiments to study geological processes and products in volcanic areas (Vesuvius, Campi Flegrei, Etna, Vulcano, Colli Albani, Tenerife, Altiplano Puna, and Colima, among others) from fluid dynamics and natural hazard perspectives. Specifically, he studies volcanic eruptions, pyroclastic currents and deposits, pre-eruption conditions, magma chamber growth, ground deformations, geo-materials fragmentation, eruption forecasting, volcanic (multi)hazard, lahars and debris flows, flow-building interactions, sand-and-dust storms and deposits, turbidity currents, man-made environmental phenomena, and geo-resources. Recently, he published the first comprehensive review on the famous 79 CE ‘‘Pompeii’’ Plinian eruption of Vesuvius by means of a multidisciplinary approach in volcanology (Doronzo et al. 2022, Earth-Science Reviews; Doronzo et al. 2023, Communications Earth & Environment) applicable, from field to modelling, to any explosive eruptions on Earth.
