 PhD - Atmospheric Science

Fanny Girard-Ardhuin received her Ph. D. in radar meteorology at the Laboratoire d'Aérologie in Toulouse in 2001. Her thesis deals with atmospheric boundary layer studies, using wind profiler radar with Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS). Research fellow at Telecom Bretagne in 2002, she analyzed Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, in particular for oil spill detection. She joined what is now the Division of Radar Application of Collecte Localisation Satellites in 2003 to implement oil slick detection algorithms applied on SAR images and test synergistic data analysis for slick classification. Since 2004 at IFREMER, she is involved in sea ice monitoring from active and passive sensors, in particular for sea ice drift estimation and multi-year ice detection, and also participates to small icebergs detection.

She is or has been involved in national and international projects with E.U. (MARSAIS, DAMOCLES, MONARCH-A, EuRuCAS...), GMES (PolarView, MyOcean), ESA (GlobIce, Sea Ice Climate Change Initiative, OceanFlux Greenhouse Gases...), and CNES (ALTIBERG, ACUR...). She is currently a member of the ESA Space Advisory Group for the ASCAT scatterometer sensor for sea-ice applications.
