Life

Pisa studied geology with Raimondo Selli in Bologna (Laurea 1962) and in 1966 wrote a dissertation on the ammonites of the Ladinium in the upper Tagliamento valley, while at the same time working on the Ampezzo section of the geological maps of Italy. This was followed by a monograph on the geology of the Forni di Sotto area and publications on volcanism in the Ladinum of the Forni di Sopra area , on stratigraphy of the anisium and ladinium in the Carnic Alps.

He died like the geologist who accompanied him, Riccardo Assereto , with whom he was friends and with whom he worked closely, and his son on an excursion during the earthquake in Friuli on Monte Bivera in 1976.
