James F. Booth
Graduate Student / Research Assistant
Department of Atmospheric Sciences
University of Washington, Seattle
My PhD research examines the relative importance of the state of
the sea suface temperature for midlatitude storms.
I am interested in climate dynamics, thermodyamics, air-sea interactions and
improving the understanding of how weather links to (and/or becomes) climate.
I enjoy teaching. In Atmospheric Science, I have experience as
an instructor for a freshman class on global warming, as well teaching assistant
experience for undergraduate and graduate classes. As
an applied math graduate student, I taught math as both a primary instructor
and as a teaching assistant.
I believe that science for the sake of exploring new ideas and
science for the betterment of society are one in the same.
