About
Karissa Rosenberger is a pioneering roboticist whose work sits at the intersection of field robotics, environmental science, and autonomous systems. Her primary research focuses on developing resilient multi-robot systems capable of operating in extreme and hazardous environments, with a particular emphasis on aerial survey robotics. Her most notable contribution is the development of autonomous, collaborative UAV swarms for mapping volcanic CO₂ emissions—a critical advance given that CO₂ is both a key predictor of volcanic eruptions and a potent greenhouse gas. Her landmark 2022 paper, "Aerial Survey Robotics in Extreme Environments: Mapping Volcanic CO2 Emissions With Flocking UAVs," has already garnered 19 citations, highlighting its immediate impact on the field. By replacing dangerous and inefficient manual sampling methods with coordinated aerial robots, Rosenberger has opened new frontiers in volcanology and climate monitoring. Her work not only enhances scientific understanding of Earth's geochemical cycles but also sets a new standard for how autonomous systems can safely and effectively gather data in the most inhospitable places on the planet.
