My principle area of research interest concerns the framework of micrometeorology and hydrology.

In several years, I have designed and implemented experiments using drone borne Laser scanners (LiDAR), gas analyzers, thermal and multispectral imagery to monitor dynamics of terrestrial ecosystems and urban sites due to climate alterations and anthropogenic activities.
