Severine Fournier

Severine Fournier received her PhD in Oceanography from IFREMER, the French National Oceanographic Center. She joined JPL in 2015 as a NASA postdoctoral fellow and is now since 2018 a research scientist at JPL. Her research focuses on the synergistic use of multi-mission, multi-variate satellite observations to study ocean variability, including satellite sea surface salinity and temperature, altimetry, ocean currents and ocean color measurements. She is the ocean lead for the JPL contribution to the joint ESA/NASA satellite mission CRISTAL that will provide sea ice observations along with ocean altimetry measurements.
