Short Biography
I am a researcher in archaeo-geophysics at NTNU since 2017 and a member of the TEMAR (Terrestrial, Marine and Aerial Remote sensing for archaeology) research group. With a background in archaeology (Valencia, 1998) and ~7 years in rescue archaeology (Spain & UK), I developed my engagement with non-destructive prospection of archaeology sites and landscapes using near-surface geophysics via an MSc (Bradford, 2008) and a PhD (Glasgow, 2013). I have held research and consultancy positions in Greece (GeoSat ReSeArch Lab, IMS-FORTH, 2013-15) and Austria (Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization-CTBTO, 2015-16).
Research Interests
My research portfolio is cross-disciplinary between archaeology, applied geophysics, geosciences and heritage management, and focuses on the application and development of innovative integrated geophysical methods to study sub-surface archaeological sites and landscapes in a non-destructive and high-resolution manner. My research showcases the potential of geophysical methods in archaeology beyond prospection (i.e. bare presence/absence of archaeology) and demonstrates that these diagnostic methods are the best ally to complement and maximise the results provided by more traditional archaeological strategies (e.g. research excavation or trial trenching in archaeological evaluation). The main topics of my research activity could be summarised as:
- Investigating buried prehistoric landscapes and extensive ancient urban areas using high-resolution geophysical prospection: Projects within this topic include: IGEAN ‘Innovative geophysical approaches for the study of early agricultural villages of Neolithic Thessaly'; Ancient City - Application of Innovative Geoinformatics Technologies for the Study of Urbanization in Ancient Greece; and currently, the recently selected GEOIbers (AICO 2020/250) ‘Prospección geofísica de yacimientos ibéricos’.
- Developing combined strategies using geophysics & soil analyses for augmented and minimally invasive site/feature characterisation: During my PhD, I focused on improving the understanding of proxy signatures of buried archaeological features by exploring the relationships between geophysical and geochemical responses of known targets at five contrasting sites in Scotland. As a postdoc in Greece, I had the opportunity to build on my PhD findings by complementing the results of geophysical surveys carried out at several well-known Greek and Cypriot sites with those obtained from a range of soil analyses and surface artefacts scattering. Towards the end of my appointment, I co-organised the first workshop on Interactions between Soil Science and Geophysics in Archaeological Prospection (ISSGAP 1) in 2015 which brought together a group of 12 researchers, working on the integration of soil analysis and archaeo-geophysics. We gathered again in 2017 (ISSGAP 2) to draft a proposal to apply for a COST Action to properly support our activities. The proposal was selected in 2018 and I was elected the chair of the COST Action SAGA (CA17131) 'The Soil Science & Archaeo-geophysics Alliance: going beyond prospection' during the kick-off meeting. SAGA is a four-year EU-funded research network project involving 118 experts in geophysics, archaeology, and soil science from 37 countries, coming from research, heritage management and commercial environments. SAGA’s goal is to promote and develop research activities bringing together geophysics and soil science to maximise the interpretation of proxy data for archaeological purposes. Beyond SAGA coordination, I am exploring the use of archaeo-geophysical surveying in snow and frozen soil conditions with the idea of assessing the quality of the results to extend the 'traditional' fieldwork season, and developing other projects related to the recording and monitoring of endangered archaeological sites using combined proxy strategies.
- Humanitarian geophysics & climate change: Besides archaeological investigations, my interests have also developed in humanitarian applications of geophysical prospection. These include the use of high-resolution geophysics to find unmarked human burials, mass graves, and illegal infrastructure. I am a CTBTO inspector (roster) for the implementation of geophysical surveys during on-site inspections (verification regime of compliance with the CTB Treaty). I am a member of two international networks related to climate change, social justice and heritage: the COST Action CA20134 (Traces as Research Agenda for Climate Change, Technology Studies, and Social Justice), and the Climate Heritage Network.

Supervision
I welcome enquires to supervise Masters and Doctoral thesis on topics related to archaeological geophysics, landscape archaeology (Nordic and Mediterranean regions) and endangered cultural heritage monitoring.

GEOIbers (AICO 2020/250) 'Geophysical Survey of Iberian Sites' (2021-2022)
TOPIC 2 – The project focused on the investigation of three types of Iberian sites (settlements, metal-production and necropolises) using geophysical methods (i.e. magnetometry and ground-penetrating radar) and photogrammetry.
Ancient City 'Application of Innovative Geoinformatics Technologies for the Study of Urbanisation in Ancient Greece' (2014-2015)
TOPIC 1 – The project sought new horizons in the study of ancient Greek urbanism by integrating satellite and aerial remote sensing, geophysical prospection, and spatial analyses in GIS systems.

Undervisning
Emner
Since joining NTNU, I have taught archaeo-geophysics and other scientific methods in archaeological prospection (eg soil analysis) to undergraduate and master's students in the following modules:
- ARK1001 - Introduction to Archaeology (2022, 2019, 2018)
- ARK2002 - Field Methodology and Interpretation (2022, 2020, 2019)
- ARK3002 - Methods of Field Archaeology, Curating and Interpretation (2018)
I have taught on remote sensing methods to undergraduate students at the Universities of Glasgow and Aberdeen. I have also contributed as a lecturer and coordinator in several international posgraduate training schools under the framework of the EU projects such as 'ArchaeoLandscapes Europe' (ArcLand) and COST Action SAGA (CA17131).
Veiledning
I welcome enquires to supervise Masters and Doctoral thesis on topics related to archaeological geophysics, landscape archaeology (Nordic and Mediterranean regions) and endangered cultural heritage monitoring.
