Polar climate scientist - exploring the causes and consequences of sea ice change using observations and models.
About me
Associate Research Scientist at the Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (ESSIC) of the University of Maryland.
Current projects (all as Principal Investigator):
- Better projections of polar climate change using state-of-the-art sea ice observations from NASA's ICESat-2 mission (Science Team member as of 2023, data product lead from 2021-2022).
- New Observing System Simulation Experiments (OSSEs) to define sea ice and land ice altimetry requirements from a future NASA surface topography mission (Science Team member since 2022).
- Improved predictions of seasonal sea ice melt using new data assimilation approaches and model assessments.
- Sea ice mission planning for the upcoming Arctic Radiation-Cloud-Aerosol-Surface Interaction Experiment, ARCSIX (Science Team member since 2022).
