Kerry A. Emanuel

Kerry Emanuel is a prominent meteorologist and climate scientist who specializes in moist convection in the atmosphere, and tropical cyclones. His research interests focus on tropical meteorology and climate, with...

Arlene Fiore

Research Interests I study the two-way interactions between air pollutants and the climate system, at scales of space and time ranging from urban to global, and from daily to decades-long....

Benjamin Weiss

Research Interests I study the formation and evolution of planetary bodies through laboratory analysis, spacecraft observations, and fieldwork. In the MIT Planetary Magnetism Laboratory, we develop high sensitivity, high resolution...

Andrew Babbin

Research Interests The Bablab studies how microbes (bacteria!) shape Earth’s climate by controlling greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. We do this by sailing across the planet, performing high precision experiments...

Kristin Bergmann

Research Interests In my lab, we combine aspects of sedimentology, stratigraphy, geochemistry, and geobiology to better understand the connections between the Earth’s environment and the organisms that inhabit it. Current...

Charles C. Counselman

A pioneer in space-based navigation and astrodynamics, Charles C. Counselman III ’64, SM ’65, PhD ’69 made seminal contributions to the field of satellite geodesy by developing a novel approach...

Julien de Wit

Research Interests My group works on discovering and studying new worlds to consolidate our understanding of planets and habitats. My primary interest and expertise lie in the field of data...

J. Brian Evans

Brian Evans is interested in the mechanical properties of rocks at elevated temperatures and pressures, and particularly in the interactions among deformation, fluid chemistry, and fluid flow. Evans received his...

Timothy Cronin

As a climate scientist, Cronin’s research focuses on convection, radiation, and clouds to create numerical modeling experiments that help us understand the stability of the Earth’s climate. Cronin has explored...

Gaia Stucky de Quay

Research Interests I investigate the driving forces behind the formation, evolution, and decay of planetary surfaces. Have you ever looked at a landscape and thought, “Wow, that looks cool. How...
