Marco Madella

I am an ICREA Research Professor and my interest is in the socio-ecological dynamics of plant resources exploitation and food production. My background is in archaeobotany and environmental archaeology, and I explore the trajectories of social change and co-evolutionary processes by modeling and simulation. I am interested in long term trajectories of biodiversity and sustainability, especially in arid or hyper-wet environments. My research is based in South Asia, Turkey, Brazil and South Africa.
