Distinguished Lecture Program on “Satellite Scatterometry: Winds, Vegetation, and Ice by Dr David G. Long

11th September -2020, India

The distinguished lecture program of GRSS was organized on 11th September at 4:45 pm using virtual platform. The distinguished lecture was delivered by Dr David G Long. He is faculty of the Electrical and Computer Engineering department (www.ee.byu.edu) at Brigham Young University (www.byu.edu). Before this, he was employed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in the Radar Science and Engineering Section. He was responsible for the design and development of the NASA Scatterometer (NSCAT) system to measure ocean surface winds from space. NSCAT successfully flew aboard Japanese ADEOS spacecraft in 1996. He was a Group Leader in the Radar Systems Engineering Group at JPL were he supervised work on the design and analysis of spaceborne scatterometer and SAR systems including NSCAT, SIR-C, and Magellan. He was the original Experiment Manager for SCANSCAT (now known as SeaWinds, it was first launched in 1999 on QuikSCAT, again in 2003 on ADEOS-II, and again as RapidScat on the International Space Station in 2014). He has received several NASA Award of Achievement and Team Recognition Awards. His research interests include microwave remote sensing, spaceborne scatterometry, synthetic aperture radar, signal processing, polar ice, and mesoscale atmospheric dynamics. He is an associate editor for IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters. He is a co-author of the textbook, F. Ulaby and D.G. Long, Microwave Radar and Radiometric Remote Sensing, ISBN: 978-0-472-11935-6, University of Michigan Press, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 2013, available through Artech House and Amazon.
