Curriculum Vitae

 

 

Harry Stern, mathematician, analyzes data from satellite-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR), which images the earth regardless of darkness or clouds. Mr. Stern works with Ron Lindsay (PSC) on sea ice motion and thickness derived from the Canadian Radarsat SAR; with Richard Moritz (PSC) on sea ice deformation; with Seelye Martin (Oceanography) on a study of the St. Lawrence Island polynya; and with Pierre Mourad (APL) on atmospheric signatures in SAR images of the ocean surface. Mr. Stern is the chairman of the Alaska SAR Facility User Working Group, which advises the data facility on processing priorities and future direction. He has been with the Polar Science Center since 1987 and with the University since 1980.
