 Bill Emanuel is a Senior Scientist for the National Climate Assessment.
He is on assignment from the Joint Global Change Research Institute
(JGCRI) of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory where he conducts
research on factors that affect atmospheric greenhouse gas
concentrations and their relationships to human activities. During the
six years prior to joining JGCRI in 2009, he was assigned by the
University of Virginia to serve as NASA Headquarters Program Scientist
for Terrestrial Ecology and within the Agency’s Carbon Cycle and
Ecosystems Focus Area. Dr. Emanuel has over 30 years experience in
carbon cycle and ecosystems research. His work at the University of
Virginia to better represent fundamental processes in models of
terrestrial carbon and nitrogen cycling helped clarify the physiological
and environmental constraints that determine ecosystem attributes such
as leaf area and canopy height. Dr. Emanuel received the Ph.D. degree in
Electrical Engineering from the Oklahoma State University.
