Lionel Jarlan

Jarlan Lionel received the Ph.D. degree in remote sensing and the “habilitation” from Paul Sabatier University, Toulouse, France, in 2001 and 2016, respectively. Since 2006, he has been a Research Scientist with the French Research Institute for Sustainable Development, Center for Spatial Studies of the Biosphere, Toulouse, France. His work is focused on the monitoring of water resources, of the agricultural water uses, and their evolution under the influence of global changes by combining spatial observation data with ecohydrological modeling. He is currently working on new methods based on multi-spectral remote sensing for the early detection of water stress in agricultural crops to improve irrigation management. He co-authored about 100 papers in peer-reviewed journal.
