Tazio Strozzi

GAMMA 

He holds a M.S. degree (1993) and Ph.D. degree (1996) in physics from the University of Bern, Switzerland, for his experimental and theoretical studies on the backscattering characteristics of snow and vegetation. He has been with Gamma Remote Sensing, Gümligen (BE), Switzerland, since 1996, where he is responsible for the development of radar remote sensing applications and is manager of a number of research and commercial projects. From 1996 to 1998 he was part-time physics teacher at the Highschool of Bellinzona, Switzerland. From 1999 to 2001 he worked as part-time visiting scientist at the University of Wales, Swansea, UK. His current activities include SAR and SAR interferometry for land use applications (including forest, urban areas, snow cover and hazard mapping) and differential SAR interferometry for subsidence monitoring, glacier motion estimation, permafrost disturbances mapping and landslide surveying. He has been involved in a number of projects of the 5th, 6th and 7th of EU (Eufora, Siberia, Integral, Galahad, Doris, etc.) and in a growing list of ESA projects.
