EO Data-Model Evaluation

Research interests

I am interested in understanding the Earth’s energy balance and how it changes over time. I work with a range of satellite observations measuring the Earth’s outgoing energy including broadband (e.g. GERB, CERES, etc.) and spectrally resolved (e.g. IASI), and I am also involved in helping to develop future satellite missions such as FORUM and TRUTHS.
