Thomas Jefferson Library (Meeting Room 1/2) 7415 Arlington Blvd Falls Church, VA 22042 When? Saturday, April 29, 2017 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM (EST) A window-view from Space: Discover how NASA satellites help scientists understand the fascinating dynamic of our planet Earth." Target audience: Engineering Students and Professional of ALL branches (Chemical, Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Software, Systems engineering...etc.). This talk aims at highlighting the different engineering branches directly involved in NASA's Earth science research. An overview of the inner workings of the Earth system will be presented, from science, engineering and societal perspectives. Illustrations will show how global-scale dynamic can tickle down to affect not only our climates, but also our economies, policies, and surprising other aspects of our daily lives. Understanding this dynamic is key to better predicting its future behavior, especially extreme weather and climate change. Scientific and engineering challenges hindering such endeavor will be presented. The talk will show how innovative engineering solutions help create a comprehensive monitoring system of the atmosphere: such as the constellations of NASA satellites, nano- or conventional, the use of drones for hurricane tracking along with a wide variety of measurement techniques. About The Speaker: Dr. Amal El Akkraoui is a research scientist in atmospheric data assimilation at NASA. She received her PhD in atmospheric-oceanic sciences from McGill University (Canada), and holds a joint engineering degree from Hassania School of Civil Engineering (EHTP-Morocco), and National School of Meteorology (ENM-France). Her work is dedicated to developing data assimilation techniques used to provide the initial conditions for Numerical Weather Prediction models.
