PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies, Calverton, MD

Research Scientist - Primary responsibilities are the administration and development of GrADS and the GDS, including technical support for COLA users and the community at large. Additional duties include data set management and maintenance of COLA's web servers. (Oct 2000 - )

 

NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, Seattle, WA

Research Meteorologist -- Research projects focused on atmospheric climate processes in the middle and high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere and their influence on variability in the Pacific basin on seasonal to interdecadal time scales. (Nov 1994 - July 2000)

 

Department of Atmospheric Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, WA

Research Meteorologist -- Examined the radiative properties of subtropical stratocumulus cloud systems using multispectral satellite data. (Jul 1993 - Oct 1994)

Graduate Student/Research Assistant -- Explored the meteorological applications of coincident visible, infrared, and microwave satellite data, with a special emphasis on the geophysical parameters retrieved from the SSMI. (Sep 1989 - Jun 1993)
