Short Bio of Professor Jordi Vilà
Jordi Vilà research interests focus on understanding the interactions between the atmosphere and land ecosystems. More specifically, and with a team of experimentalists and modelers under the name of CloudRoots, they investigate the interactions between clouds and photosynthesis. To this end, they have carried out intensive field campaigns in the Atacama desert, irrigation regions surrounded by extensive semi-arid areas and the Amazon tropical forest. Their findings contribute to improve the representations of photosynthesis and clouds on weather and climate models. Special interest is placed to transfer their research findings to the communities living at these ecosystems such as farmers or school children to increase their awareness on the fragility of these ecosystems.
