Computational Scientist At NOAA EMC
Boulder, Colorado, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnna Shlyaeva is a computational scientist with nine years of experience developing and leading research and development in data assimilation for geophysical applications. Based at UCAR and now embedded at NOAA EMC, she has led the JEDI-Algorithms team and implemented ensemble-based assimilation methods including EnVar and LETKF across sea-ice and atmospheric models. Her background blends a PhD-level foundation in computer and information sciences with hands-on implementation of hybrid and scale-dependent covariances, model-error strategies, and assimilation-cycle integration. She has a track record of translating advanced research into operational-ready code and algorithms used in numerical weather prediction and sea-ice forecasting. Known for mentoring and teaching from her academic posts, she bridges rigorous theory and practical software engineering to improve forecasting systems. Colleagues rely on her ability to combine deep domain expertise with reproducible, production-focused computational solutions.
