Roberto Sabia was born in Napoli, Italy, in 1975.
He graduated cum laude in Environmental Sciences, curriculum in Oceanography, at Universitá Parthenope in Napoli, Italy (2002), and obtained the Ph.D. cum laude in Signal Theory and Communication at Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC) in Barcelona, Spain (2008), with a Thesis on the ocean salinity retrieval applied to the ESA Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission. In 2006, he was visiting Ph.D. student at NOC, Southampton, UK.
From 2010 to 2013, he was an ESA post-doc Research Fellow at ESA-ESRIN, Frascati, Italy.

In 2023, he has been appointed Earth Observation Ocean Scientist at ESA-ESRIN, Frascati, Italy.
In 2008, he was the recipient of the best Ph.D. award in Remote Sensing of the European IEEE GRS Society.
In 2010, he has led a European COST Action proposal titled “SMOS Mission Oceanographic Data Exploitation (SMOS-MODE)”, successfully funded for the period 2011-2015.
In 2018 he obtained the APM Project Management Qualification (PMQ).
His research interests are within the ocean remote sensing and climate change domains - specifically on ocean salinity, carbon cycle and ocean acidification.
