Earth Systems Analysis
Combining data from satellites, aircraft, and fieldwork helps further our basic understanding of ecosystems and allows for insight into conservation practices. By leveraging statistical learning and optimization techniques, we can maximize the use and interpretability of remote sensing data to better understand complex earth systems.
Energy Systems Optimization

Designing, operating, and rebuilding energy systems are tasks that require balancing environmental impacts, economics, and regulations. Computational optimization provides a critical tool to quantify and balance tradeoffs in this multifaceted space.
