معرفی
Andrew Carleton is a Professor in the Department of Geography at Pennsylvania State University. His research spans satellite climatology, synoptic climatology, and climate dynamics, with a focus on human impacts on climate and the role of jet contrails in Earth's surface climate. He also investigates polar lows and their interactions with Antarctic sea-ice-air systems in the context of Southern Hemisphere climatic teleconnections.
- Research Interests: Contrails, climate change, Southern Hemisphere climate, sea ice dynamics, teleconnections, and synoptic climatology.
His recent publications highlight interdisciplinary collaborations, emphasizing contrail climate impacts, Corn Belt hydroclimatology, and Arctic-Antarctic climate linkages. Dr. Carleton's work integrates field measurements, satellite data, and ice core analysis to address climate modeling challenges.
Current projects include mitigating aviation contrail climate impacts and studying historical climate patterns in the U.S. Corn Belt and New England. He contributes to climate model evaluation for Antarctica and examines uranium concentrations in ice cores as climate proxies.
- Grants: Recipient of energy and environmental seed grants for interdisciplinary research teams (2023).
Dr. Carleton's affiliations include the Elsevier Pure Profile and IEEE Research Themes. His work underscores the interplay between atmospheric processes, human activities, and long-term climate trends.
