Camilla Sætre is an Associate Professor in Ocean Technology/Measurement Technology at the Department of Physics and Technology, University of Bergen. Her research focuses on measurement science, particularly on the reliability and quality of measurements in ocean-related areas. She is actively involved in major research initiatives including SFI Smart Ocean and HyMe: Reliable metering for the hydrogen Supply Chain. Dr. Sætre's work spans ocean observation systems, multiphase flow measurement, underwater optical communications, and sensor technology. Her research addresses critical challenges in obtaining reliable measurements in harsh marine environments, with particular emphasis on data quality assurance and real-time monitoring capabilities. She has made significant contributions to directional wave measurements from navigational buoys, demonstrating their accuracy compared to dedicated wave measurement systems. Her publication record shows a transition from early work in atmospheric physics (doctoral thesis on nitric oxide in the thermosphere) to her current focus on ocean technology. Recent publications reveal innovative approaches to correcting scattering errors in underwater optical measurements, developing smart ocean observation systems, and addressing biofouling effects on sensor data. SFI Smart Ocean project (Research Council of Norway, reference 309612, 2020-2028) HyMe project (Research Council of Norway, reference 336565) Dr. Sætre collaborates extensively with industry partners including Aanderaa Instruments AS and NORCE Norwegian Research Centre AS. Her work bridges theoretical measurement science with practical ocean observation applications, contributing to more reliable and cost-effective monitoring systems for marine environments.

Michael Seidel serves as a Research Associate at the Institute of Geography, University of Leipzig, working under Prof. Dr. Michael Vohland in the Chair of Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing since May 2014. His work integrates advanced remote sensing techniques with soil science applications. Education: Master's degree in Physical Geography / Geoecology (M.Sc.) from University of Leipzig (2010-2014), with minors in Vegetation Ecology/Plant Geography and Geosciences Bachelor's degree in Geography (B.Sc.) from University of Leipzig (2007-2010), with minors in Geosciences and General Chemistry Seidel's research centers on measuring and mapping soil properties using near-field and remote sensing methods. He specializes in optimizing on-site measurements with portable spectrometers (both imaging and non-imaging) and developing machine learning algorithms for quantifying key soil characteristics. His work extends to digital soil mapping for monitoring programs across different scales by combining spectrometric point data with spatial covariates like multispectral satellite imagery and digital surface models. Current teaching activities include Statistics for Geographers (B.Sc.), Analysis of Remote Sensing Data (B.Sc.), and Multivariate Data Analysis in Spectroscopy (M.Sc.). His publication record demonstrates expertise in soil spectroscopy applications, particularly in organic carbon assessment using portable instruments across visible-to-near-infrared and mid-infrared spectrums. Research projects reveal sustained funding from sources including the German Research Foundation (DFG), focusing on mobile spectroscopic methods for soil property determination, cost-effective organic matter detection in agricultural soils, and hyperspectral water monitoring systems. Research Projects: Synergetic Use of Mobile and Lab-Based Spectroscopic Methods (2018-2021, DFG-funded) Screening Methods for Organic Matter Detection in Agricultural Soils (2017-2019) Water Monitoring in Vertical Profiles Using Hyperspectral Technology (2014-2017) Seidel maintains active research in both field-based soil property measurement and algorithmic development for environmental monitoring applications, with particular emphasis on practical implementations for soil conservation and agricultural management.
