View from My Fortress

Here, read a poem.

I Go Down To The Shore

I go down to the shore in the morning
and depending on the hour the waves
are rolling in or moving out,
and I say, oh, I am miserable,
what shall—
what should I do? And the sea says
in its lovely voice:
Excuse me, I have work to do.

— Mary Oliver

Ignacio Saldivia Gonzatti

Welcome. I am a PhD candidate in the Earth Systems and Global Change group at Wageningen University & Research. My work focuses on climate-crop dynamics, foodshed analysis, and seasonal forecasting. I am also interested in climate change mitigation, carbon removal strategies, and ocean sustainability, and I am committed to open science. You can read more about my current research.

Beyond my research, I use this site to share an anthology of my favourite poems and other writings, along with random notes on research and other topics.
