We are promoting a Special Issue on River Monitoring with the aim to provide an overview of the most advanced research activities in this field.

The aim of the present Special Issue is to promote the identification of the most innovative new solutions for river monitoring that can be used to increase our knowledge on water availability and control extreme events. In particular, contributions should aim to address the following topics:

  • The use of remote-sensing approaches for hydrological, hydraulic and morphological monitoring;
  • Innovative methodologies for measuring/modelling/estimating stream flow;
  • New methods or technologies to cope with data-scarce environments;
  • Use of camera systems for river monitoring;
  • Inter-comparison of innovative and classical models and approaches;
  • Monitoring of water quality and quantity;
  • Biomonitoring and bioindicators used for river ecosystems.

He is Full Professor of Hydrology and Hydraulic Constructions at the University of Naples Federico II. He is currently chair of the IAHS MOXXI working group. His research primarily centers on hydrological modeling and monitoring. Recognizing the challenges posed by the complexity and limitations of traditional hydrological observations, he actively explores advanced and alternative monitoring techniques, such as the utilization of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) coupled with image processing.
