Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlice Crawford is a physical scientist with nine years of experience applying atmospheric transport and dispersion modeling to operational challenges at NOAA’s Air Resources Laboratory. She is a core contributor to the HYSPLIT model, focusing on ensemble methods, probabilistic forecasting, and integrating satellite data to improve real-time pollutant, volcanic ash, and radiological forecasts. With a Ph.D. in Physics from Cornell and an early research background in single-molecule optics and fluid dynamics, she brings rigorous quantitative skills to practical forecasting problems. Colleagues rely on her expertise to enhance forecast robustness and decision support under uncertainty, and she has a demonstrated track record of translating research into operational tools used by emergency responders and forecasters.
