Derek Mueller's research examines indicators and impacts of climate change on the cryosphere and the consequences of a warming climate, specifically focusing on both atmospheric and oceanic cryospheric systems. His current interests include the detection of environmental changes in the Arctic through studying ice shelves, sea ice, and lake ice using microwave and optical remote sensing. He investigates the drift and deterioration of large icebergs, known as ice islands, which are considered hazards for offshore infrastructure. Additionally, he is involved in the development of research instruments for remote sensing of ice and cryospheric change detection. His expertise encompasses various aspects of cryospheric research, contributing to a greater understanding of climate dynamics in polar regions.
