Dr. Glynn Hulley is a physicist in the Carbon Cycle and Ecosystems group at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Glynn's research interests are focused on the remote sensing of Earth surface properties using thermal infrared spectroscopy. He is a member of several NASA thermal infrared satellite instrument teams including MODIS, VIIRS, ECOSTRESS, ASTER, AIRS, and Landsat. A key aspect of Glynn's research is the development of new techniques to retrieve surface temperature and spectral emissivity information from thermal remotely sensed data. Algorithms and science products developed by Glynn are widely used by researchers and have been incorporated into commercial packages by NASA.

Dr. Darren Ghent: is a senior research scientist at the University of Leicester and an NCEO staff member. His research interests include the retrieval, validation and exploitation of land-surface temperature (LST), both the products from Earth Observation and the simulations of land-surface models. He is the LST Validation Scientist and LST Algorithm Manager on the Sentinel-3 mission, and is responsible for maintaining LST products from the ATSR series of instruments. He is the Project Scientist on the ESA DUE GlobTemperature Project and PI on the ESA TIRI-SIM Project; and is and has been involved on numerous other ESA, EU and National projects.
