Linda Bogerd

Linda Bogerd is a researcher at Wageningen University, affiliated with the Hydrology and Environmental Hydraulics group. Her work focuses on precipitation measurement, remote sensing, and environmental monitoring, particularly in urbanized river basins and tropical regions. She collaborates with experts like Hidde Leijnse, Aart Overeem, and Remko Uijlenhoet, contributing to advancements in hydrometeor classification, radar validation, and plastic pollution assessments.

• PhD thesis: Down-to-earth perspectives on spaceborne precipitation observations (2024)

Her research integrates ground-based and spaceborne sensors, including Commercial Microwave Links (CMLs), meteorological radars, and radiometers. Key projects involve evaluating satellite precipitation products (IMERG, GPROF), improving shallow precipitation detection, and analyzing macroplastic pollution in rivers like the Odaw (Ghana) and Rhine (Europe).

Recent publications highlight her expertise in tropical rainfall monitoring, urban hydrology, and climate data analysis. She contributes to datasets on river plastic measurements and participates in initiatives like the Deepening our understanding of shallow precipitation observations from space (2019-2024).
