Edoardo Mazza, Ph.D.
NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Lab
Seattle, WA
Welcome!
I am a post-doc at NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, working with Dr. Chidong Zhang on combined measurements of the Air-Sea Transition Zone (ASTZ) using uncrewed systems.
I recently received my Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences from the University of Washington, under the supervision of Prof. Shuyi Chen.
My research focuses on observing and modeling the interaction of the atmosphere and ocean in the tropics. This involves examining phenomena like tropical cyclones and the Madden-Julian Oscillation to gain a better understanding of their role within the weather-climate continuum, their connection and feedback to the extra-tropics, and ultimately, their impact on society.

Professional Experience
In graduate school I served as a research assistant, teaching assistant and co-advisor for undergraduate students.
