to those earning degrees in Earth sciences today – from a person who has experienced three of them. Along the way, I’ll highlight some of the interesting things I’ve worked on, and lessons learned. Post-graduate school I started out as a government researcher
working on aerosol modeling and remote sensing at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center for nearly a decade. Wanting a new challenge, I surprisingly found myself applying for a position as a climate scientist for ExxonMobil. I spent six years helping the company
to better understand climate science; managing external research with major partners such as UCR, Harvard, and Columbia University; acting as an author for the IPCC greenhouse gas inventory report; and helping the company better use remote sensing technologies
– especially satellites – to monitor and manage their own emissions. Finally, hoping to make a bigger difference (and to get out of the office), earlier this year I made the transition to the international stage – working with UNEP’s International Methane
Emissions Observatory to translate satellite detections of methane to actionable data and ultimately on-the-ground mitigation. I will give a brief overview of MARS and share how interested researchers can get involved with the IMEO, particularly with our
sponsored science studies.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;margin:0px"><span class="x_Apple-converted-space x_ContentPasted0 ContentPasted0" style="margin:0px"> </span></span></p>
