Duk-jin Kim conducts research to monitor global environmental changes and natural disasters based on the understanding of various satellite remote sensing sensors, such as radar sensor (SAR), thermal infrared sensor (TIR), and optical sensor (EO/IR). The main research areas are precise measurement of surface displacement, estimation of three-dimensional fault displacement, detection of volcanic eruption, detection and analysis of ground subsidence and cause, estimation of sea ice thickness and movement/change, analysis of glacial (ground line) retreat, quantitative estimation of groundwater discharge, deep learning application to big satellite data, radar signal simulation/processing/synthesis, aircraft and automobile SAR observation experiments.
