Dr Cristina Ruiz Villena

Postdoctoral Research Associate

EO Data-Model Evaluation

Research interests

I am interested in greenhouse gases, the carbon cycle and combining climate models and data. I work on Environmental Digital Twins, integrating climate models and EO data using machine learning. Digital Twins are important because they provide decision support and democratise access to climate data.
