Howard Zebker
Kwoh Ting Li Professor in the School of Engineering and Professor of Geophysics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsResearch
My students and I study the surfaces of Earth and planets using radar remote sensing methods. Our specialization is interferometric radar, or InSAR. InSAR is a technique to measure mm-scale surface deformation at fine resolution over wide areas, and much of our work follows from applying this technique to the study of earthquakes, volcanoes, and human-induced subsidence. We also address global environmental problems by tracking the movement of ice in the polar regions. whose ice mass balance affects sea level rise and global climate. We participate in NASA space missions such as Cassini, in which we now are examining the largest moon of Saturn, Titan, to try and deduce its composition and evolution. Our work includes experimental observation and modeling the measurements to best understand processes affecting the Earth and solar system. We use data acquired by spaceborne satellites and by large, ground-based radar telescopes to support our research.
Teaching
I teach courses related to remote sensing methods and applications, and how these methods can be used to study the world around us. At the undergraduate level, these include introductory remote sensing uses of the full electromagnetic spectrum to characterize Earth and planetary surfaces and atmospheres, and methods of digital image processing. I also teach a freshman and sophomore seminar course on natural hazards. At the graduate level, the courses are more specialized, including the math and physics of two-dimensional imaging systems, plus detailed ourses on imaging radar systems for geophysical applications.

Orr Zohar
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2021
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2023BioOrr Zohar, from Haifa, Israel, is pursuing a PhD in electrical engineering at Stanford School of Engineering. He graduated summa cum laude from the Technion with a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and a master’s degree in electrical engineering. Orr aspires to research, develop, and translate novel machine learning methods into the open surgical domain for applications such as AI-assisted surgery and surgical skill evaluation. Currently, developing novel learning methods in open-world learning and action quality evaluation at MARVL, advised by Prof. Serena Yeung.
Before coming to Stanford, he was a machine learning and algorithms engineer at proteanTecs and a junior researcher at the Technion's LNBD, where he developed soft electronic platforms that can heal, detect damage, and serve as multifunctional electronic skins. During his undergraduate degree, Orr worked as a visiting undergraduate researcher at the de la Zerda group, Stanford University, where he developed OCT image processing algorithms for improved molecular contrast and depth-of-field. Orr is a Bazan Group scholar and was awarded the Sieden family prize for his contributions to YBCO-based photon detectors' development. -
