Régis Borde

Régis Borde has a diverse and extensive work experience in various scientific roles. Régis started their career in 1990 at Meteo France, where they worked as a Scientist during their military national service. At Meteo France, they were responsible for designing and developing a radiative transfer model called DART. After that, they joined Laboratoire de Météorologie Physique (LaMP) as a PhD student and later became a Professor Assistant. In this role, they focused on radiative transfer, microphysics of clouds, and numerical modeling.

Following their time at LaMP, Borde worked as a Postdoc at Laboratoire Interdisciplinaire des Sciences de l’Environnement, where they were involved in remote sensing projects under the European Space Agency's ENVISAT program. Régis also managed contracts for MOS and MERIS with the European Space Agency.

Borde then joined the Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission's Science Service as a Grantholder. In this position, they worked on remote sensing and air quality projects as part of the European projects PD&S and EUROTRAC-2 TROPOSAT.

Currently, Borde is employed at EUMETSAT as a Senior Scientist. Régis is responsible for various tasks such as extracting Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMV) products from different generations of Meteosat and Metop instruments. Régis also works on the Upper-level Divergence product extracted from MSG.

Throughout their career, Borde has demonstrated expertise in remote sensing, radiative transfer, cloud microphysics, atmospheric motion vectors, and air quality.

Régis Borde obtained their PhD in Atmospheric Physics and Dynamics from Université Blaise Pascal (Clermont-II) - Clermont-Ferrand, completing their studies from 1991 to 1994.
