Luca Pulvirenti received the Laurea degree in electronic engineering and the Ph.D. degree in electromagnetism from the Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy, in 1999 and 2004, respectively. He was a Post-Doctoral Researcher with the Department of Electronic Engineering, Sapienza University of Rome, from 2004 to 2009 and a Fixed-Term Researcher with the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications, Sapienza University of Rome from 2010 to 2013. Since October 2013 he is a Researcher with CIMA Research Foundation, where he is currently the Head of the Earth Observation unit. His research interests include remote sensing of the Earth\u2019s surface, with particular emphasis on hydrological applications of remote sensing and the development of processors for mapping the extent of disasters like floods and forest fires using remote sensing data. He was involved in several projects, funded by national and international institutions, on the use of Earth Observation data for hydro-meteorological risk management. He is author\/co-author of more than 50 publications on peer-reviewed journals.<\/p>\n
