Prof. Penner’s research is adding the impacts of contrail formation within a global climate model. This involves following the physics from scales that treat aerosols (sub-micron sizes) to contrails (hundreds of meters) to climate (hundreds of kilometers)....
Michael Liemohn

Michael Liemohn

His research interests focus on understanding the physical processes controlling energetic charged particle motion in planetary magnetospheres, including Earth.  He writes and uses space plasma physics numerical models, especially kinetic modeling that resolves...

Zhenguang Huang

Zhenguang Huang

Dr. Zhenguang Huang is an assistant research scientist in the department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering. His research focus is on 3-D global five- and six-moment multi-fluid simulations, and 3-D global multi-ion MHD simulations of the space plasma. He...
Xianglei Huang

Xianglei Huang

His research makes use of rich information contained in the spectrally resolve observations (chiefly from space) to probe the climate system and gauge the performance of climate models. Topics of his ongoing projects include formulation and design of climate...
Mark Flanner

Mark Flanner

Professor Flanner’s research ambitions lie in understanding large-scale energy transport in Earth’s climate system, with particular focus on the roles of the cryosphere (including seasonal snow cover, glaciers, and sea-ice) and atmospheric aerosols. To...
R. Paul Drake

R. Paul Drake

Prof. Drake has played a leading role in the development of two related fields of inquiry — High-Energy-Density Physics (HEDP) and High-Energy-Density Laboratory Astrophysics (HEDLA). This has grown from his scientific work, encompassing experiment, theory, and...
Brian Arbic

Brian Arbic

Brian Arbic is a physical oceanographer. His group focuses on global modeling of internal tides and gravity waves, with growing interests in air-sea interactions and modeling of surface tides and their role in Earth System processes over geological time scales. ...
