Biography:

Dr. Jerry Ziemke came to NASA Goddard in 1994 as an NRC research fellow specializing in atmospheric composition and dynamics. He received a Ph.D. in Physics (1990) from Iowa State University. Previous to his Ph.D. he received an MS in Physics from the University of Minnesota Minneapolis (1984), and an MA in Mathematics (1986) and a BS in Physics/Mathematics (1981) from Minnesota State University. He has many publications including about 50 refereed journal papers. Since coming to Goddard he has collaborated with scientists both at Goddard and elsewhere on a large range of topics, but primarily relating to studies on atmospheric ozone. Since 1996 his main focus has been satellite retrieval of tropospheric ozone, and he is currently PI on the American OMI Science Team for retrieval of tropospheric ozone. Jerry Ziemke became an associate research scientist within UMBC GEST in March 2002.
