Our Speakers
Dr. Charlie Messina
Corteva Agriscience
Dr. Messina is a senior research scientist at DuPont Pioneer. His major research interest includes the fusion of biological models and statistical learning methodologies to increase the limits of predictability and response to environmental change in agricultural systems.
Dr. Arin Jumpasut
Planet labs
Dr. Jumpasut leads the CARDIO team within the Payload team at Planet. This team has responsibilities from the development of the underlying radiometric calibration and validation up to interoperability and harmonisation of Planet data to different data sources. One of the team's main goals is to make satellite data more accessible for agricultural applications.
Dr. Sotirios is an associate professor of integrated cropping systems at the Department of Agronomy at Iowa State University. His main research interests involve understanding complex Genotype by Management by Environment interactions and modeling various components of the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum. His approach combines field experimentation and the use of mechanistic simulations models.
Dr. Sotirios Archontoulis
Iowa State University
Dr. Fraisse works at the University of Florida. His focus is on how the latest climate science can benefit agricultural producers. He is the project director of AgroClimate, an effort between eight different Universities, to develop knowledge in agrometeorology/ agroclimatology and transfer that knowledge to help agricultural managers mitigate production risks associated with climate variability and change.
Dr. Clyde Fraisse
University of Florida
