Happy to have had the opportunity to give a seminar at OMP/LEGOS (Geophysics and Space Oceanography Lab) in Toulouse, France, entitled "How often should we observe our rivers? Progress Towards Satellite Requirements to Capture Discharge Dynamics".
Our latest paper on Peak flow event durations in the Mississippi River basin and implications for temporal sampling of rivers is out in Geophysical Research Letters (https://doi.org/10.1029/2024GL109220)! Here are the key takeaways:
Peak flow events (PFEs) in the Mississippi basin range from 2 days upstream to 30 days downstream, hence exhibiting acute spatial variability.
Sampling periods must be a factor of 4 finer than median peak flow event durations to estimate durations within 10% median error.
Should our guiding principle be applicable globally, a ∼2–3 days revisit frequency would allow capturing ∼95% of PFEs and estimate their duration with ∼90% accuracy for half of Earth's biggest rivers.
February 2024:
Thrilled to have participated in the organization of the SWOT data access workshop led by NASA PO.DAAC at the AGU 2024 Chapman conference. Feeling lucky to have had some of the best science discussions in my early career within this research community! 😀
I presented a poster at the AGU 2024 Chapman conference on Remote Sensing of the Water Cycle in Honolulu, HI on Wednesday 02/14/2024 on "Capturing River Discharge Variability with High-Frequency Space-Time Observations from a Satellite Altimetry constellation"!
December 2023:
I will give a talk at AGU 2023 Fall meeting in San Francisco, CA on Friday 12/15/2023 at 10:30am on "Capturing River Discharge Variability with Observations from a High-Frequency Satellite Altimetry Constellation"! See you at the H52G - Remote Sensing of Rivers, Lakes, Reservoirs, and Wetlands session.

I am very excited to share that I will start a new postdoc position at @NASAJPL with the Water & Ecosystems group next month in Pasadena, CA!
Thrilled to have successfully defended my PhD thesis at @ISAE_officiel from a collaboration between @onera_fr and @CNES!!
I am happy to share that I will defend my PhD thesis at ISAE-SUPAERO (National Higher French Institute of Aeronautics and Space) in Toulouse on June, 13, 2023!
The SPCD and FuSVIPR maps for pluvial flood detection using satellite imagery and machine learning techniques are freely available on Zenodo! Feel free to use them to evaluate the performance of intense surface runoff susceptibility models!

My latest and 4th PhD paper is out: Mapping Pluvial Flood-Induced Damages with Multi-Sensor Optical Remote Sensing: A Transferable Approach
I had the pleasure to present my last PhD chapter at EGU 2023 in Vienna: Space-time downscaling of extreme rainfall using stochastic simulations, intense runoff susceptibility modeling and remote sensing-based pluvial flood mapping
