Paul Seibert is a postdoctoral researcher affiliated with the Bay Area Environmental Research Institute at NASA Ames Research Center. His work focuses on the characterization and quantification of wildland fire fuel types using satellite remote sensing techniques. Seibert completed his PhD at the University of California, Berkeley in 2026, where he studied the effects of fog and dew on the productivity of coastal California grasses.
His research also encompasses near-surface imaging spectroscopy for measuring solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF).
Throughout his career, Seibert has received recognition for his contributions to the field. In 2025, he was awarded the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) Fellowship. Some of his notable publications include "The Role of Leaf Wettability and Morphology on Leaf Surface Water Storage: A Cross-Biome Synthesis" published in Ecohydrology in 2026, and "Foliar water uptake of C3 perennial grasses under drought" which appeared in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences in 2025.
Additionally, Seibert co-authored the study "Quantifying seasonal and diurnal cycles of solar-induced fluorescence with a novel hyperspectral imager" that was published in Geophysical Research Letters in 2024.
