Press Release: “Improving the Understanding and Representation of Atmospheric Gravity Waves using High-Resolution Observations and Machine Learning”

October 2020

Joan Alexander, Alison Grimsdell, and Martina Bramberger are embarking on a multi-institutional NSF project that is the subject of a press release from Rice University.

Alexander offers that this talented team of scientists from Rice, NWRA, NYU, and Stanford are using Loon-balloon measurements, high-resolution models, and machine learning tools to improve how climate and weather forecasting models account for unresolved atmospheric gravity waves.

NWRA’s Chad Spooner will participate in the development of the CLAIRE system, designed to autonomously observe, orient, decide and act based on its experiences and environments to optimize NASA mission-to-the-moon communications.

Pretty Cool, Chad!
