Autor

Rao Kotamarthi is a Chief Scientist of the Environmental Science Division and Department Head for the Atmospheric Science and Climate research group at the Argonne National Laboratory. He applies numerical models to the assessment of climate change impacts and uses high performance computing and physics-based models for projecting changes at regional and local scales. His other research interests include the role of absorbing aerosols on radiative forcing and developing models for resource characterization of wind energy.
