Research interests

  • Remote sensing of greenhouse gases
  • Spectral imaging
  • Emission estimation and mitigation targets

I developed an early interest in environmental physics during my studies in Heidelberg, where I focused on remote sensing of the atmosphere. During my time here, I worked with air-borne DOAS observations and ground-based FTIR spectroscopy. Currently I am developing carbon dioxide and methane imaging techniques for shortwave infrared hyperspectral cameras in a novel viewing geometry. I enjoy working on the methods which process the field observations into scientifically relevant data, e.g. methane emission dynamics from coal mine ventilation shafts.
