Dr Eriita Jones

I am a planetary and space scientist with a PhD in Astrophysics from the Australian National University, and over 10 years of postdoctoral research expertise in academia and industry. I am passionate about applications of multi- and hyperspectral satellite remote sensing and data fusion techniques to solving meaningful environmental problems. My main current research areas are (i) the search for water resources and habitable envrionments is on other planets, using impact craters (particuarly Mars), and (ii) the sustainable management of water resources and mitigation of bushfire severity through evapotranspiration; using space-based sensors. I am also a Planetary Observations Specialist on BinarX, part of the Binar Space Program at Curtin University.
