His research led to estimates of mass and energy exchange between atmosphere, ocean (including sea ice) and ice sheets of both hemispheres that are used in global climate change model construction. His contributions have been recognized in several awards from US and Argentine government agencies.[1]
In 2001 Giovinetto participated in a NASAJohnson Space Center workshop, "Antarctic Explorations Parallels for Future Human Planetary Exploration", where the isolated polar environment experience of researchers was used to help predict issues that could arise in human crew extraplanetary exploration. There are many parallels between a winter-long remote polar settlement and one on the Moon or Mars.[1]
Education and affiliationsEdit
Mario Giovinetto's higher education began at the Universidad Nacional de La Plata and culminated in a Ph.D (1968) in Geography with a minor in Geology and Geophysics from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. He has held academic positions at the University of Wisconsin, the University of California - Berkeley, and the University of Calgary where he served as department head. He was Principal Scientist at the Department of Geodynamics, Raytheon Technical Services Company and has held the appointment of Professor Emeritus, University of Calgary.[1]
