Research

My research interests build upon a broad and extensive background in developing climate and earth system models and using these tools to study carbon-climate interactions and biogeochemical feedbacks over the last 25 years.

Multidisciplinary studies are essential to Earth System research efforts, and my professional goals include conducting research on projects that integrate theory, modeling and observations across earth system components to identify processes driving trends and variability, and help improve future projections and assess impacts on fragile ecosystems, the environment, and humans.

In collaboration with Inez Fung, Scott Doney, and Keith Lindsay, I developed the first global fully-coupled carbon-cycle Earth System Model in the US using NCAR CSM1. Recently I led the development of GFDL's first two Earth System Models (ESM2M and ESM2G)  for IPCC5.

Current projects include assessing the role of emissions and climate in determining methane lifetime in CM3, the coupling of ocean heat and carbon uptake in the ESMs, CO2 inversions, and developing the next generation of GFDL ESMs .
