Andrea Donnellan is manager of JPL’s Instrument Systems Implementation and Concepts Section. In her research Donnellan collects and analyzes geodetic data to model deformation of mechanical Earth processes and study cascading geohazards. She has applied Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR/UAVSAR), Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and stereophotogrammetry to study the underlying dynamics of earthquake fault systems, plate boundaries, landslides, and wildfire/debris flows cascades. Donnellan leads JPL’s Near-Surface Airborne Instruments Laboratory (N-SAIL). She is PI of QUAKES-I an airborne imaging suite of visible and SWIR cameras for stereophotogrammetry and improving UAVSAR capability to study and respond to natural disasters. Donnellan is on the NISAR Science Team. She led NASA’s Surface Topography and Vegetation Incubation Study, which released its study report in June 2021. Donnellan is Principal Investigator of NASA's GeoGateway project of which the predecessor project QuakeSim won NASA’s Software of the Year Award in 2012. Donnellan has conducted field studies in California, in Antarctica, on the Altiplano of Bolivia, in Mongolia, and on Variegated Glacier in Alaska. She has been a geophysicist at JPL since 1993. Donnellan has degrees in Geology (BS Ohio State University, 1986), Geophysics (MS and PhD Caltech 1988 and 1991), and Computer Science (MS University of Southern California, 2003). She held a National Research Council postdoctoral fellowship at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center from 1991-1993. Donnellan has received the Presidential Early Career Award, the MUSES of the California Science Center Woman of the Year Award, Women in Aerospace Award for Outstanding Achievement, JPL's Lew Allen award, several NASA Space Act Awards, the Antarctic Service Medal, and has been a finalist in the astronaut selection process three times. Donnellan has a glacier in Antarctica named after her for her work on that continent. Dr. Donnellan is a commercial instrument rated land and sea plane pilot with about 500 hours of flight experience and is a NASA and FAA small UAS pilot. She has flown in the US, Mexico, Canada, and Africa. She is a certified scuba diver with dives off California, Hawaii, Palau, Australia and the Caribbean. Andrea Donnellan is a fellow of the American Geophysical Union, Seismological Society of America, a fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science, a Senior member of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society and a Fellow National of The Explorers Club.
