Biography

Silvia Omodeo Sale is a Research Associate in the Section of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. Her research focuses on basin analysis, thermal modeling, and the characterization of organic matter. She investigates the evolution of sedimentary basins and the constraining factors that control the formation of natural resource deposits. Her work is particularly oriented towards reconstructing the thermal history of basins in relation to tectono-stratigraphic evolution, employing methods such as structural reconstructions, subsidence analysis, and heat flow estimation. She aims to understand the geological, climatic, and biological factors influencing the deposition of organic matter in sedimentary basins while studying their related geochemical and petrophysical properties. Her project portfolio includes a detailed examination of the Swiss Molasse Basin and its geothermal activities, site selection for CO2 storage on the Swiss Plateau, and research on coal and carbonaceous shales in Western Canada. Omodeo Sale combines a broad range of disciplinary data through numerical modeling, making a significant contribution to the field of sedimentary geology.
