Michael Denbina

Michael Denbina received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering, in 2010, and the Ph.D. degree in geomatics engineering with a specialization in earth observation, in 2015, from the University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada. In 2015, he became a NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellow with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, CA, USA. During his fellowship, he primarily worked on the mapping of vegetation height and structure using polarimetric SAR interferometry. In 2017, he joined JPL as a Signal Analysis Engineer in the Radar Science and Engineering Section. His research interests include algorithms for the retrieval of many types of environmental parameters from SAR interferometry and polarimetry, such as forest canopy height, biomass, and surface water level.
