Pietro Goglio
Lecturer
Life Cycle Assesment and Systems Modelling
Cranfield University
United Kingdom
Biography
Dr Pietro Goglio is Lecturer in LCA and systems modelling. He carried out his University studies in Agricultural Sciences and a PhD in AgroBiosciences and Environmental sciences. His past research focused mainly in LCA, greenhouse gas estimation and monitoring, agroecosystem modelling. He has also carried out research in the field of bioenergy, with lignocellulosic bioenergy and transformation systems. He has worked with most temperate arable crops including wheat, barley, maize, clover, alfalfa, triticale, oilseed rape, Ethiopian mustard, sunflower and sorghum. He has also carried out research in assessing the biomass potential and resource use at territorial level. He has excellent interpersonal, oral and written communication skills in at least 3 languages (English, French and Italian) to ensure proper interpretation and plain language explanation of scientific research to various echelons of audiences.
Research Interest
Dr. Goglio is currently focusing his research in developing approaches to combine science with LCA methodologies for agricultural, energy, waste systems which better reflect the characteristics of the systems.
