Douglas Alsdorf's research focuses on using satellite and remote sensing data to study rivers, floodplains, and water storage, with a strong emphasis on the Congo River Basin. His work combines radar-based Earth observation techniques (such as InSAR and satellite altimetry) with hydrology to understand flooding, surface water dynamics, and climate impacts on river systems, particularly in regions with limited ground-based monitoring.
