I study the use of current and future satellite data to better monitor drought and help stakeholders manage the agricultural water in a more sustainable way. In particular, I am involved in the preparation of the french-indian TRISHNA satellite mission (CNES/ISRO) which will deliver data products on the vegetation water consumption and the plant water stress at plot scale every two to three days globally.
