Seho Kim

Assistant Professor, Hawaiʻi Institute of Geophysics and Planetology · Hawaiʻi Space Flight Laboratory
Cooperating Graduate Faculty, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa

Seho develops microwave remote sensing techniques for Earth and planetary science — bistatic radar, radio occultation, GNSS and signals-of-opportunity reflectometry — and the compact RF instruments and CubeSats that fly them. Before joining HIGP he was a NASA JPL postdoctoral fellow (2023–2025), working on sea ice thickness retrieval with Spire CubeSats and radio occultation for mapping Jupiter's magnetic field. He received his Ph.D. from Purdue University (2023), where his work focused on SoOp reflectometry and NASA's SNOOPI mission, and his M.S. (2018) and B.S. (2016) from Korea Aerospace University.
