Overview
Claudio is Associate Professor in Sedimentology and Stratigraphy at the University of Camerino (Italy). His
personal expertise lies in the field of sedimentary geology, specifically: basin analysis, field mapping and
sequence stratigraphy applied to outcrop successions. He received his degree in Geology from the University of
Camerino in 1995 and his PhD from the University of Pisa in 2002. In September 2003 Claudio returned to the
University of Camerino to undertake a postdoctoral research (Assegno di Ricerca) investigating the highresolution sequence stratigraphic framework of Miocene, Pliocene, and Pleistocene shallow-marine clastic
successions exposed in central Italy, Ecuador, and northern Chile. He then moved to the University of
Liverpool (from April 2006 to January 2008) as a postdoctoral research associate to work with Steve Flint and
his group on the depositional architecture, internal fills styles, and sequence stratigraphic framework of slope
channel-levee complexes exposed in the Laingsburg depocenter of the Karoo Basin (South Africa).
During the last years (2008-present) his research has mainly focused on the role played by external controls
(tectonics, climate, sea-level change, and sediment supply) on the nature and timing of deepwater deposition,
characterization of deepwater reservoir outcrop analogues, and application of hierarchical stacking patterns in
deepwater sequence stratigraphy.

Project leader: François Michaud, Université Pierre et Marie Curie/Géosciences Azur
Villefranche sur Mer, France.
Academic associated of the Turbidite Research Group (TRG), University of Leeds. The TRG is a
recognized leader in the study and analysis of deep marine clastic sedimentary systems. Based in
Leeds University, UK, the group is supported by UK research councils, by other UK
governmental funds and by the oil industry worldwide. The aim of the TRG is to study the flow
dynamics and deposits of turbidity currents and related flow types via outcrop studies, flume
experiments, seismic studies and theoretical approaches. Improved understanding of the
processes involved in deposition leads to a better capacity to predict sand distributions, and
characterise reservoir properties.
