Jordi Castellvi is working in remote sensing, focused in soil moisture determination. The PhD is shared between the UPC and the ICGC (Institut Cartogrà fic i Geològic de Catalunya). The PhD explores the feasibility to equip small satellites with L-band passive sensors to retrieve soil moisture. Field campaigns with airborne sensors, both microwave and optical, are being held to test the readiness and the possibility to increase spatial resolution through data fusion.
