Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science

Congratulations to Conor McNicholas for receiving a first place award in the AMS AI for Environmental Science Conference Student Presentation Contest for his presentation “Smartphone Pressure Analysis with Machine Learning and Kriging.” 

August Mikkelsen, a junior in Atmospheric Sciences was highlighted in The Daily for his research on mixed phase clouds! 

Consider this: the U.S. West Coast has seen a decrease in rainfall between 1981-2018. UW scientists think a phenomenon called the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) might be to blame. A stormy disturbance that occurs several times a year in the tropics, the MJO is similar to the El Nino Southern Oscillation, which is notorious for generating extreme winter weather in the Pacific Northwest. 

Congratulations to Michael Diamond for receiving the Best Student Presentation Award at the American Meteorological Society’s 2020 Annual Meeting/22nd Conference on Planned and Inadvertent Weather Modification! 

Fiona Lo was on KOMO News at 5pm Monday, 24 February, about her work on improving pollen forecasts using meteorological and climatic observations. The warm sunny weather in the last week has initiated the pollen season in Seattle. 

A belated congratulations to Isabel McCoy for receiving an Outstanding Student Presentation Award (OSPA) at the AGU 2019 Fall Meeting! This prestigious award is granted to the top 5% of student participants. 

Graduate student Lucas Vargas Zeppetello reflects on his experience being misrepresented in online forums and how we can prevent the misuse of our science in the future.

Congratulations to Assistant Professor Kyle Armour for winning a 2020 Sloan Research Fellowship. Sloan fellowships are awarded for distinguished research accomplishments and a unique potential to make substantial contributions to the awardee’s field. 

Congratulations to Yue Dong for receiving an Outstanding Student Presentation Award (OSPA) at the AGU 2019 Fall Meeting! This prestigious award is granted to the top 5% of student participants.
What is OSPA? 

The University of Washington has long boasted one of the country’s top programs in atmospheric sciences. Now, the UW is also teaching undergraduates how to share that knowledge online and on TV as a broadcast meteorologist.
