About
Anna Maria Iannarelli is a leading researcher in atmospheric remote sensing, with a primary focus on the retrieval and validation of precipitable water vapour (PWV) — a critical parameter for meteorology and climate science. Her major contributions center on advancing the accuracy of sun–sky radiometer measurements, particularly through the ESR/SKYNET network. In her landmark 2018 study, Iannarelli conducted a rigorous validation of PWV estimates derived from these radiometers against established GNSS/GPS and AERONET references across three distinct European sites. This work, which has garnered over 40 citations, demonstrated the reliability of the ESR/SKYNET methodology and provided a crucial framework for integrating ground-based remote sensing data into broader atmospheric models. By harmonizing diverse observational systems, her research directly supports improved weather forecasting, climate monitoring, and hydrological cycle studies. Iannarelli’s work is notable for its methodological precision and its role in strengthening the global infrastructure for water vapour observation, making her a key figure in the ongoing effort to enhance our understanding of atmospheric processes.
