R. Rietbroek

R. Rietbroek serves as an Assistant Professor at the University of Twente's Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC), specifically within the Department of Water Resources. His academic role involves research and teaching focused on geodetic techniques for studying sea level variations and the global water cycle in a changing climate.

His primary research areas encompass:

• Sea Level Rise and its geophysical causes
• Earth's Water Cycle dynamics using satellite observations
• Applications of satellite gravimetry (GRACE mission)
• Radar altimetry for ocean and land surface monitoring
• Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) for geodetic positioning

He actively promotes the integration of geodetic methods into interdisciplinary environmental research and educational programs, emphasizing capacity building in geodetic applications for water resource management.
