James Garrison is a Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Purdue University's College of Engineering, with a courtesy appointment in the Division of Environmental and Ecological Engineering. He holds affiliations with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Global Engineering Program (GEP Team). His research focuses on remote sensing using signals of opportunity (SoOp), particularly for soil moisture, hydrological processes, and environmental monitoring. Key areas include GNSS reflectometry, P-band and S-band reflectometry systems, and applications in agriculture, disaster management, and climate science.
Dr. Garrison's work integrates aerospace engineering principles with geospatial technologies, emphasizing mission design (e.g., SNOOPI CubeSat mission) and algorithm development for spaceborne instruments. He collaborates on projects like the CYGNSS satellite constellation and explores innovative uses of signals of opportunity for oceanography, ionospheric studies, and root-zone soil moisture profiling.
His contributions span instrumentation validation, covariance modeling, and data assimilation techniques. While no explicit awards are listed, his involvement in high-profile missions like SNOOPI underscores his leadership in Earth observation technologies. His advising and grants are not detailed here, but his research group likely focuses on CubeSat systems and remote sensing applications.
