Associate Professor at the Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya in Barcelona, Spain. He obtained his PhD degree in 2000 in the field of "physical methods for remote sensing" at the Service d'Aéronomie from the lnstitut Pierre-Simon-Laplace in París, France. His main research interests are twofold: (i) on a technical point of view, the development of lidar techniques and instruments in all their aspects for aerosols observations, and (ii) the study of aerosols. The latter includes aerosol optical and microphysical characterization thanks to data fusion, aerosol transport models, atmospheric boundary layer study and modeling. He is coordinator of the Spanish/Portuguese lidar network.
