Education

[edit]

Biondi received a "Laurea" in forestry from the Università di Firenze (Italy) in 1985. He was then awarded a Fulbright fellowship to study at the University of Arizona in Tucson (USA), where he received master's (M.S., 1985) and doctorate (Ph.D., 1994) degrees in watershed management and geosciences[2].

Career

[edit]

After completing his M.S. degree, Biondi taught ecology at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore briefly while also working at the Abruzzo National Park. Once he received his Ph.D., he was hired by Scripps Institution of Oceanography, first as a postdoctoral researcher (1994-1997) and then as a project scientist (1997-2000). From 1998 to 1999 Biondi taught ecology at San Diego State University, and then in 2000 he joined the University of Nevada, Reno, where he progressed from assistant to associate professor with tenure (2005), and finally to full professor (2011).[2]
