    Alexander Marshak received the M.S. degree in applied mathematics from Tartu University, Estonia, in 1978 and the Ph.D. degree in numerical analysis from the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Novosibirsk, Russia, in 1983. In 1978, he joined the Institute of Astrophysics and Atmospheric Physics in Estonia, where he worked for 11 years. In 1989, he received an Alexander von Humboldt fellowship and worked for two years with Göttingen University, Germany. In 1991, he joined GSFC, first working for SSAI, then UMBC/JCET, and finally, NASA/GSFC, where he has been since January 2003.

    Dr. A. Marshak conducts research on remote sensing of clouds, aerosols and blowing snow, on cloud-aerosol interaction, and on many aspects of atmospheric radiative transfer. He is the Deputy Project Scientist for the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite mission, and a member of the CALIPSO and MODIS Science Teams, and the International Radiation Commission.

    Dr. Marshak has published over 170 refereed papers, books, and chapters in edited volumes. Web of Science publications and citation metrics can be found here; see also Google Scholar.

    Brief Bio

    Alexander Marshak received the M.S. degree in applied mathematics from Tartu University, Estonia, in 1978 and the Ph.D. degree in numerical analysis from the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Novosibirsk, Russia, in 1983. In 1978, he joined the Institute of Astrophysics and Atmospheric Physics in Estonia, where he worked for 11 years. In 1989, he received an Alexander von Humboldt fellowship and worked for two years with Göttingen University, Germany. In 1991, he joined GSFC, first working for SSAI, then UMBC/JCET, and finally, NASA/GSFC, where he has been since January 2003.

    Dr. A. Marshak conducts research on remote sensing of clouds, aerosols and blowing snow, on cloud-aerosol interaction, and on many aspects of atmospheric radiative transfer. He is the Deputy Project Scientist for the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite mission, and a member of the CALIPSO and MODIS Science Teams, and the International Radiation Commission.
