An Operatorial Description of Desertification
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2016Summary: We propose a simple theoretical model for desertification processes based on three actors (soil, seeds, and plants) on a two-dimensional lattice. Each actor is described by a time dependent fermionic operator, and the dynamics is ruled by a self-adjoint Hamilton-like operator.

Desertification and Desertification Indicators Classification (DPSIR)
2014Desertification is one of the main driver of global famine and intensive urbanization. Fertile soil that passes the process of desertification cannot be reversed and it is lost for many decades. Basically the process is the degradation of soil. Soil degradation is not necessarily continuous.
