Land-Atmosphere Scientist

EO Data-Model Evaluation

Research interests

I am interested in land-atmosphere interactions, and especially in how the land surface can provide subseasonal-to-seasonal predictability for the atmosphere. I work with global daily satellite Earth Observation products to understand land-atmosphere coupling at subseasonal timescales and evaluate its representation in Earth System Models.
