Manoochehr Shirzaei

Manoochehr Shirzaei received the M.Sc. degree in surveying engineering (geodesy) from Tehran University, Tehran, Iran, in 2003 and the Ph.D. degree in geophysics and remote sensing from the University of Potsdam, Potsdam, Germany, in 2010. From 2007 to 2011, he was a Researcher with the German Research Center for Geosciences, Potsdam, Germany, where he developed several advanced multitemporal InSAR algorithm and heuristic optimization methods with application in volcano rapid response systems. In 2011, he joined the University of California–Berkeley as a Postdoctoral Research Scholar to work on aseismic and seismic faulting processes along the Hayward Fault. In 2013, he joined the School of Earth and Space Exploration, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ, USA, as an Assistant Professor and Head of the Radar Remote Sensing And Tectonic Geodesy Lab, where he is currently an Associate Professor. His research interests include radar remote sensing, signal processing, inverse theory, groundwater hydrogeodesy, tectonics, volcanism, and induced seismicity.
