Makiko H. Sato
Senior Staff Associate (Retired)
Dr. Makiko Sato has devoted her career to researching our global climate. Before joining Climate Science, Awareness and Solutions, she spent the last few decades working closely with Dr. Hansen at NASA GISS after obtaining her PhD in physics. Her research interests include analyzing the computational results of climate modeling due to different climate forcings such as greenhouse gas increase, ozone depletion and stratospheric and tropospheric aerosol changes and analyzing global change data, especially atmospheric temperature. Dr. Sato analyzes and updates figures for critical climate diagnostics and feedback and climate forcings. All figures are available to the public on her website.
