报告人简介:
Gregory R. Carmichael has a BS, MS and PhD in chemical engineering and has done extensive research related to air quality and its environmental impacts. He is currently the Karl Kammermeyer professor of chemical and biochemical engineering at the University of Iowa, director of the University of Iowa Informatics Initiative, a cross campus activity focused on Big Data, and co-director of the Center for Global and Regional Environmental Research (a large interdisciplinary center with 100+ faculty).
His research is focused on air pollution and climate change, where he uses comprehensive computer models and big data to simulate the interactions of air pollutants with weather and climate and to estimate resulting environmental impacts. His models are also used to evaluate effectiveness of various air pollution and climate change mitigation strategies.He has authored or co-authored over 340 scientific publications, as well as six books and monographs. He has received numerous awards, including the American Institute of Chemical Engineer's Lawrence K. Cecil Award for outstanding chemical engineering contribution and achievement in the preservation or improvement of the environment. He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. He serves on numerous international advisory boards related to climate forecasting and atmospheric science; including NASA’s Earth System Subcommittee and chair of the scientific steering committee for the environmental programs at the UN World Meteorological Organization.
