Current Research Projects

Diviner
I am the Principal Investigator of the Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment, which is one of six instruments on NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). Diviner has been mapping the Moon continuously since July of 2009, providing the most detailed and comprehensive measurements of the thermal emission of any solar system body. Diviner's measurements are revolutionizing our understanding of the thermal stability of lunar volatiles, the physical properties of the Moon's regolith, and the Moon's geological history.
I am currently working to use Diviner's thermal emission measurements of the Moon's coldest regions to measure the heat flow rate from the Moon's interior. Abstract

RIMFAX
I am Deputy Principal Investigator of the RIMFAX Ground Penetrating Radar Experiment on NASA's Mars 2020 Rover Mission. RIMFAX is currently being built by the Norwegian Defense Research Establishment (FFI) and will be delivered for integration with the rover in 2018. RIMFAX will probe the subsurface of Mars as the rover drives, providing geological and environmental context for the rovers in-situ science investigations and cached samples. Svein-Erik Hamran of FFI is the RIMFAX Principal Investigator.

Next Generation Earth Orbital LIDAR
I am working with colleagues at JPL to develop technology that will enable next-generation Earth orbital LIDAR systems. LIDAR is proving to be a powerful, quantitative tool for characterizing global change. The ability to acquire ranging information with centimeter accuracy scales is revolutionizing diverse fields such as ecology, glaciology, geomorphology, climatology, agriculture, hydrology and geography. Applications for LIDAR data within the geosciences are growing more rapidly than the availability of high quality LIDAR data. Only a small fraction of the Earth has been surveyed by LIDAR, and existing LIDAR coverage is insufficient to fully assess and monitor the impacts of human activities on the global environment on interannual timescales. I am developing concepts for next-generation swath-mapping LIDAR systems that will eventually enable global LIDAR coverage at 5 meter spatial resolution.
