Noam Izenberg

Dr. Noam Izenberg’s primary interests include remote sensing and in situ measurement of rocky planetary and solar system small-body surface composition, morphology, stratigraphy, active geologic processes, and change detection. He is also interested in the hydrologic cycle and surface/atmosphere interface processes, including those in extreme environments. The planetary bodies of interest to his work include Mercury, Venus, Earth, Moon, Eros, Mars, the Galilean satellites, Enceladus, Titan, Triton, Pluto, Arrokoth, and exoplanets. Dr. Izenberg also conducts laboratory research on chemistry at the atmosphere-surface interface of Venus, space weathering on airless bodies including dielectric breakdown, seismic shaking of regolith on small bodies, and thermal effects on reflectance spectra.
