Lauren Zamora is a researcher at the University of Maryland, College Park and also works as a contractor at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Her areas of expertise include both aerosol-cloud interactions and marine biogeochemistry. She earned her Ph.D. from the University of Miami in 2010. A significant portion of Zamora’s work is dedicated to the statistical analysis of extensive datasets from satellites, models and reanalysis products, as well as the examination of data from complementary field campaigns. Currently, she is participating in flight planning and leadership activities for the NASA ARCSIX aircraft campaign over Northern Greenland. This campaign aims to investigate the influence of clouds, aerosols and other factors on the melting of sea ice melt in this climatically critical area.
