Bio
Daniel Cusworth is a climate/air quality/data scientist that studies atmospheric processes using satellite and surface observations. His most recent work focuses on quantifying methane emissions using a multi-tiered observing system that combines several observation sources such as satellite, airborne and surface observations. Previous to his work at JPL, Daniel studied the air quality impacts of agricultural fires in India. Daniel has a PhD from Harvard in atmospheric chemistry, with a concentration in computer science.
