Dr. José A. Caparrós-Santiago holds a PhD in Geography from the University of Seville, Spain (2025). His research has primarily focused on land surface phenology (LSP) as a tool for studying vegetation dynamics using satellite observations. His work has advanced the understanding of spatiotemporal vegetation patterns across Iberian, Balearic, and Canarian ecosystems and has contributed new insights into the use of satellite-based phenological indicators for ecological modelling and environmental monitoring. He has also co-authored several research studies on crop monitoring applications in Spain, addressing different crop types and agricultural systems, with an emphasis on the use of satellite time series to assess crop development, phenological stages, and spatial variability in agricultural landscapes.
