Yunling Lou

Yunling Lou received the B.S. and M.S.E. degrees from University of Texas, Austin and University of Pennsylvania respectively. She is currently Supervisor of the Suborbital Radar Science and Engineering Group at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California, where she manages UAVSAR project, NASA's airborne imaging radar test-bed for future imaging radar missions. Besides instrument operation and delivering calibrated UAVSAR data products, her group develops new SAR imaging techniques and signal processing algorithms, including repeat-pass interferometry to measure crustal deformation and land subsidence, and polarimetric interferometry and tomography to study forest structure. Her group is also developing near real-time onboard processing capabilities for rapid response of hazards.
