Brian Green is a Physical Science Research Scientist at Stanford University, specializing in Earth System Science. His research focuses on the dynamics and circulation of the stratosphere, with specific interest in quantifying the sources and effects of gravity waves. He employs new datasets from balloon observations to study these phenomena, aiming to understand the contributions of gravity waves to atmospheric dynamics and develop parameterizations for use in climate models. Green's previous research concentrated on tropical rainfall dynamics, specifically the historical influences of extratropical sea surface temperatures and the distribution of coupled tropical ocean circulation on storm development. Utilizing simplified global climate models and satellite observations, he has reconstructed climate data to explore these topics. His academic background includes a PhD in Climate Science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, completed in 2018. Green is broadly interested in tropical climate, clouds, and the general circulation of the atmosphere and ocean.
