GEOG 322 - Applications of Radar Remote Sensing

This graduate-level seminar focuses on the applications of satellite-based radar remote sensing to a full suite of earth science related fields. Radar remote sensing offers fundamentally different potential applications compared to optical remote sensing owing to its sensitivity to wetness and surface roughness as well as its independence from sunlight and cloud conditions. As such, radar remote sensing lends itself to a variety of fields, including the investigation of forest ecology, land cover/land use, soil moisture, snow and ice, hydrology, geomorphology, oceanography, and urban spaces. This seminar introduces students to both seminal and recent cutting-edge research in the field of radar remote sensing. Students will focus on independent research projects that will allow them to analyze and apply radar data within their particular fields of interest.
