Dr. Christine Bradley discusses her doctoral work on spectropolarimetric imaging, which was used to map the polarimetric BRDF of various Earth based zones. An alternative way to thinking about this is a mapping of the reflectance of various common zones on Earth. Dr. Bradley discusses some of the challenges she faced in her work and and outcome of her research. Additionally, she shares excellent tips about getting through research and dissertation writing.

We hope you enjoy this weeks podcast, and as always we encourage our listeners to comment on this weeks episode.
