Summary

Senior๐
Top SchoolEric Bullock is a research geographer and postdoctoral researcher with 11 years of experience applying satellite remote sensing, airborne lidar, and machine learning to map forest carbon dynamics and land-use change. He has led high-impact projects for the U.S. Forest Service, NASA, the World Bank, and Boston University, and his Continuous Degradation Detection (CODED) algorithm is used in over 15 countries and contributed to Nepalโs NDCs. At the University of Utah he now builds high-resolution biomass benchmarking datasets and open-source tools that integrate field, drone, hyperspectral, and GEDI data for rigorous map validation. A prolific scholar and grant recipient, he blends hands-on field campaigns with scalable cloud-based workflows (Google Earth Engine) to turn complex remote sensing methods into operational monitoring systems. Less obvious: he routinely translates research outputs into national reporting tools and capacity-building workshops, bridging cutting-edge science with real-world policy uptake.
