New associate professor: Dr. Andrea Marinoni
We welcome Dr. Andrea Marinoni who has now officially started his new position at CIRFA and UiT – the Arctic University of Norway. He has been busy from day one preparing for teaching, supervising students and getting to know the ins and outs of CIRFA. We expect his expertise will be relevant across CIRFAs work packages.
Academic background
Andrea Marinoni received the B.S., M.Sc. (cum laude), and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering from the University of Pavia, Pavia, Italy, in 2005, 2007, and 2011, respectively. He is an associate professor at Earth Observation Lab., Dept. of Physics and Technology, UiT – the Arctic University of Norway, Tromsø, Norway.
In 2009, he was a Visiting Researcher with the Communications Systems Lab., Dept. of Electrical Engineering, University of California at Los Angeles, CA, USA. From 2013 to 2018, he has been a Research Fellow with the Telecommunications and Remote Sensing Laboratory, Department of Electrical, Computer, and Biomedical Engineering, University of Pavia. From 2015 to 2017, he was a Visiting Researcher with the Earth and Planetary Image Facility, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Be’er Sheva, Israel; the School of Geography and Planning, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China; the School of Computer Science, Fudan University, Shanghai, China; the Institute of Remote Sensing and Digital Earth, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China; and the Instituto de Telecomunicacoes, Instituto Superior Tecnico, Lisbon, Portugal. His research interests include efficient nonlinear signal processing applied to multimodal remote sensing, Earth observation interpretation, and Big Data mining and analysis for human–environment interaction assessment.
He was a recipient of the two-year Applied research grant, sponsored by the Region of Lombardy, Italy, and STMicroelectronics N.V. in 2011, the INROAD grant, sponsored by the University of Pavia and Fondazione Cariplo, Italy, for supporting excellence in design of ERC proposal, in 2017, the Progetto professionalità Ivano Becchi grant funded by Fondazione Banco del Monte di Lombardia, Italy, and sponsored by the University of Pavia and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA, USA, for supporting the development of advanced methods of air pollution analysis by remote sensing data investigation, in 2018. He is a Senior Member of IEEE, and a Member of International Society on Urban Health
