Title: "Land-Atmosphere Interactions, Anthropogenic Land Cover Change, & Future Aridity"

About the speaker:

Dr. Kirsten Findell completed her B.S.E. in Princeton University’s Geological Engineering Program in 1992 and her Ph.D. in hydroclimatology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2001. In the spring of 2001, Dr. Findell started post-doctoral research at GFDL, and she became a GFDL staff member in 2002. Central to her work are questions about the role of the land surface in climate and about how convective triggering is influenced by both atmospheric and land surface conditions. Her work addresses issues including deforestation, land use/land cover change, floods and droughts, and continental aridity in a changing world.
