Iva Međugorac was born in summer of 1982 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. After finishing high school in Žepče, Iva went to study physics at Faculty of Science at the University of Zagreb in autumn of 2001. She earned her diploma in physics-geophysics (equivalent to Bologna’s Master in Physics-Geophysics) in September of 2008, specialising in oceanography. Next year she started to work as a research assistant at Department of Geophysics, Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb, and she enrolled in a Ph.D. study in physics-geophysics at the same Faculty. She successfully defended her dissertation titled Exceptionally high sea levels in the Northern Adriatic and the east-to-west sea-level slope in December 2018, which was supervised by Prof. Mirko Orlić and Dr. Miroslava Pasarić. Iva is a teaching assistant in two graduate course: Introduction to geophysical fluid dynamics and Atmosphere and sea dynamics. She has participated in Sea-Bird Europe Open House and Training (organised by Sea-Bird Electronics, Kempten, Germany, 2012), Workshop on Costal Dynamics Modelling School (organised by University of Toulon and CNRS, Agelonde, France, 2011) and Research visit to the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory (Liverpool, UK, 2010).
In 2015 she received Outstanding Young Scientist Award from the Faculty of Science.
Besides her research and teaching, Iva works as a project administrator for MAUD and CARE projects. She was involved in organisation of international scientific meeting Geophysical Challenges of the 21st Century held in Zagreb, Croatia on 2nd December 2011, and publication of the monograph Nulla dies sine observatione. She actively participates in the annual event Open Day of Department of Geophysics.
Iva published five peer-reviewed papers (WoS) and is the leading author of three papers. She participated in six international scientific conferences with three poster presentations (CIESM 2013, EGU 2017, EGU 2018) and three oral presentations (MIPRO 2011, FRIAR 2016, 6th MetMed & MI 5 2017).
