Research Interests:
Data assimilation of remotely derived aerosol parameters into a medium resolution aerosol dispersion model (NRL model NAAPS). Modeling of radiative properties of large scale aerosol events such as Saharn dust and contribution to the global aerosol forcing. Study of the ambient air to cloud interface and aerosol-cloud interactions as observed by lidar and infrared radiometers.
Biography:
Dr. Santiago Gassó received a M.S. in applied physics from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1992. He obtained his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in 1997 and 2001, respectively, in geophysics from the University of Washington. At the University of Washington Dr. Gassó worked with Professor Dean A. Hegg on the analysis and derivation of aerosol optical and hygroscopic properties by remote sensing and in situ methods. He joined the GEST faculty in August 2001 and is working in the Climate and Radition Branch at GSFC under the supervision of Dr. Si-Chee Tsay. |
