PhD Physics, Prospection, Studies

His research interests include the passive remote sensing from space, in particular aerosols, clouds and ocean colour. In particular, he has developed for CNES a Monte Carlo radiative transfer code including polarization and adapted to spherical shell geometry and an algorithm to retrieve aerosol optical thickness over land using MSG/SEVIRI for the ICARE data center and the Climate Monitoring SAF. He is responsible for IASI mission studies  for CNES and leads activities of  atmospheric correction schemes for land monitoring projects (CGLOPS, C3S, CCI+ VP)
