Lesley Ott is a climate scientist with 20 years experience studying air pollution and greenhouse gases. She received her PhD in atmospheric science from the University of Maryland in 2006 and has been working at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center ever since. She currently leads the carbon group within the Global Modeling and Assimilation Office, NASA’s center for understanding contemporary weather and climate using a family of advanced Earth system modeling tools. Her work focuses on using a combination of satellite data and numerical models to better understand the sources and sinks of greenhouse gases and how the processes that control them may change over time. She also coordinates a group of university and government scientists that aims to inform how future satellite missions can improve understanding of carbon pollution and public policy.
Greenhouse gas monitoring
Combining satellite observations and models to provide information on greenhouse gas concentrations and sources and sinks.
Integrated carbon cycle modeling
Connecting high quality models that describe the movement of carbon through Earth’s land, oceans, and atmospheres.
Greenhouse gas mission planning
Using advanced modeling tools to plan next generation remote sensing observations of greenhouse gases and pollutants.
Experimental carbon cycle forecasts
Developing experimental forecasts of the major flows of carbon on timescales from days to months.
Atmospheric composition forecasting
Providing high-resolution, daily estimates of atmospheric composition in support of a variety of research and applications.
