My research interests are broadly represented in the following three categories:
Radar Geophysics
I am foremost a radar geophysicist, and interested in both refining existing, and developing new algorithms and techniques for studying aspects of the Earth system with passive and active radar instruments.
Permafrost Processes
Much of my graduate research has been devoted towards studying permafrost processes in the Alaskan and Canadian arctic, with a particular emphasis on quantifying seasonal active layer dynamics, and understanding the effects of wildfire and time-variable surface soil moisture on the active layer.
Planetary Science
Radar geophysics has broad applicability towards the field of Planetary Science. I am particularly interested in active radar imaging methods to study surface processes on Titan, radar sounding of Europa, and both imaging and sounding for studying the Martian periglacial and polar environments.
