Ian Fenty

Education

Ph.D., Climate Physics and Chemistry Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, Expected Completion: (February 2010)
Bachelor of Science, System Dynamics Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA (2001-2005)

Research Interests

Climate dynamics: mechanisms of coupled ice-atmosphere-ocean variability, quantitative estimation/attribution of Arctic/high latitude climate variability.
Numerical modeling: impacts of the parameterization of ice-ocean fluxes on climate simulations, sea ice numerical modeling.
Observation systems: remote sensing platforms, geophysical transfer algorithms, adaptive/targeted observations.
Model-data synthesis: strategies for effective adjoint state estimation, sequential filter/smoother methodologies, estimation of model/data error.
Climate prediction: quantifying predictability timescales of geophysical variables of societal importance.

Projects

ECCO-Ices
ECCO-Ices is an ECCO-follow-on project that aims to produce increasingly accurate syntheses of all available global-scale ocean and sea-ice data at resolutions that start to resolve ocean eddies.

Professional Experience

Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA, NASA Postdoctoral Fellow, (2010-Present)
