Research Interests
Research Interests
Remote Sensing of snow, glaciers and sea ice, Surface Modelling, Polarimetric Radar Backscatter Modelling, Hyperspectral Image Analysis, Thermal Remote Sensing, Passive Microwave Remote Sensing, Remote Sensing of Soil Moisture, GNSS-reflectometry, Applied Machine Learning, Applied Neural Computing, Pattern Recognition, and Feature Selection/Extraction.
My research interests involve development of algorithms for remote sensing of snow including, snow cover mapping and studies on snow geophysical parameters. I work with multispectral, hyperspectral and polarimetric SAR data. I utilise/develop models based on information theory, probability, stochastic and statistical modelling. I also work on the development and utilisation of electromagnetic scattering models with SAR Polarimetry for surface/volume moisture and dielectric studies. I am also interested in radar applications for sea ice studies.
