Alexis Hrysiewicz
Alexis is currently an ESA Living Planet Fellow at University College Dublin (UCD, Dublin, Ireland). Since 2020 he has worked at the Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) Centre in Applied Geosciences (iCRAG) at University College Dublin (Ireland) to study ecohydrological conditions of Irish and British peatlands by using InSAR and SAR observations. Previously he completed a …
Raised Peatland Ecohydrology Evaluation through Sentinel-1 InSAR data and Machine Learning – RaiPEAT_InSAR
Prime company: UNIVERSITY COLLEGE DUBLIN (IE)The “Raised Peatland Ecohydrology Evaluation through Sentinel-1 InSAR data and Machine Learning” (RaiPEAT_InSAR) project will investigate linkages between ecohydrological parameters of raised peatlands and InSAR estimates to classify of ecohydrological dynamics of peatlands. The main objectives are as follows: Ground validation of InSAR-derived surface motions of temperate raised peatlands by using co-located soil moisture, water …
Ground Reference Observations Underlying Novel Decametric Vegetation Data Products from Earth Observation – GROUNDED EO
Prime company: University of Salford (GB)Ground Reference Observations Underlying Novel Decametric Vegetation Data Products from Earth Observation (GROUNDED EO) aims to exploit cutting-edge machine learning approaches, ground data collection capabilities, and data fusion methods to develop improved decametric vegetation biophysical products from Sentinel-2 and -3, ultimately facilitating better environmental decision making. The objectives of the project are to: Develop a …
Integrated Remote Sensing for Biodiversity-Ecosystems Function – IRS4BEF
Prime company: MAX PLANCK INSTITUTE FOR BIOGEOCHEMISTRY (DE)The combination of information provided by different optical and thermal spaceborne imagers can give complementary information about vegetation plant biodiversity and ecosystem functions to understand their links (BEF relationships) better. However, how integrating multi-mission information in this context remains unclear. Therefore, IRS4BEF wants to solve relevant methodological questions regarding the integration and analysis of these …
