Elton Vicente Escobar-Silva holds a Bachelor's degree in Environmental Sciences from the Federal University of São Paulo UNIFESP (2015), along with an exchange program in Technologies for Prevention and Mitigation of Natural Disasters at the Universität Hamburg, Germany (2014/2015). He obtained a Masters Degree in Environmental Sciences from the Federal University of São Carlos UFSCar (2019), which included a 6-month internship at the USDA-ARS Hydrology and Remote Sensing Laboratory in the USA. He earned his Ph.D. in Remote Sensing from the National Institute for Space Research - INPE (2024). He is a member of the research groups (i) Systems and Methods for Territorial Planning and Management (INPE) and (ii) Geotechnologies, Environment and Sustainability - GEOSUS (UFSCar). His work focuses on geoinformatics, remote sensing, urban planning, hydrodynamic modeling, urban floods, flood early warning systems (FEWS), and climate change and water security. Currently, he is a Post-doctorate at the National Center for Monitoring and Alerts of Natural Disasters (Cemaden).E-mail: eltescobar@gmail.com (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

In 2022, the global population reached 8 billion, with 55% residing in urban areas. Projections for 2050 anticipate a growth to 9.77 billion, with approximately 6.6 billion people (nearly 68% of the world's population) living in cities. Urban flooding emerges as a hazardous phenomenon affecting both developed and developing nations, endangering human lives, and causing damage to propertie…
Current forecasts estimate that the global population will grow from 7.7 billion people to 9.8 billion people by 2050. Furthermore, the world's city dwellers are expected nearly 68% of the world's population. If this scenario concretes, the global area covered by urban settlements is expected to increase to over 3 million km2, which would be equivalent to the entire country of India. A ke…
The way urban settlements and human activities are organized in geographic space, along with high rates of population growth, are important concerns in modern society, especially considering the social and environmental impacts. In this context are natural urban ecosystems (with green areas as their main element), which in addition to contributing to public health also improve life qualit…
The study of vegetation growth and the variables involved in this process have motivated research in the fields of agriculture, forestry and environmental sciences, with the development of different models. Vegetation growth models run simulations to predict the developing, growth and yield of agricultural plantations. However, there are few examples of such models considering urban areas…
