Educated with a Ph.D. in Physics in 1998. Worked as a part-time computer consultant during Ph.D. studies. After Ph.D. worked at Princeton University for 3 years before joining NASA/Ames Research Center. In 2012 joined the Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
Multi-Scale Structure of the Universe
Worked for several years on novel algorithms for estimating the multi-scale stucture of the physical universe using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. This was compared with results derived from N-Body simulations such as a the Millennium Simulation.These types of comparisons tell one how well our present knowledge of how structures grow via gravitation fit the natural world.
General Circulation Modeling as applied to Planetary Atmospheres
Using the GISS General Circulation Model for modern day Earth simulations, in recent years we have expanded it's capabilities to model paleo Earth, modern and paleo Mars, and paleo Venus. We currently have funding to expand the model to the atmosphere of Titan.
Planetary Atmospheric Modeling
Currently using funding from NASA's PATM program to expand the capabilities of the GISS General Circulation Model to the atmosphere of present day Titan.
