Larissa Patricio Valério

Larissa holds a Bachelor in Oceanography from the Federal University of Parana (2011) and a master in Remote Sensing from the Brazilian Institute of Space Research (2013). She is currently doing her PhD at James Cook University in Australia, at the School of Environmental Sciences and Engineering (PhD in Natural and Physical Sciences - Oceanography). Larissa has prior experience in estuary, coastal and shelf physical processes with focus on dynamics of sea surface temperature fronts. Her current focus is on Remote Sensing of Ocean Colour, with expertise in bio-optical algorithms, water quality, artificial neural networks and radiative transfer simulations of coupled ocean-atmosphere systems.

Larissa possui bacharelado em Oceanografia pela Universidade Federal do Paraná (2011) e Mestrado em Sensoriamento Remoto pelo Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (2013). Atualmente e Doutoranda na James Cook University, Australia, na School of Environmental Sciences and Engineering (PhD in 'Natural and Physical Sciences - Oceanography). Larissa tem experiencia em oceanografia fisica costeira, estuarina e de plataforma, com foco na dinamica de frentes termicas a partir da avaliacao da temperatura da superficie do mar por satelites. O seu foco atual e no Sensoriamento Remoto da Cor dos Oceanos com expertise em algoritmos bio-opticos, qualidade da agua, redes neurais artificiais e simulacoes de tranferencia radiativa acoplada oceano e atmosfera.
