Second AMS Award

The American Meteorological Society (AMS) awarded Emily Luschen, a graduate student from the University of Oklahoma, 3rd place in the student poster competition for the joint 12th Conference on Transition of Research to Operations/18th Symposium on Operational Environmental Satellite Systems at the 2022 Annual Meeting of the AMS for her work entitled “Updates to the GOES16 Split-Window Precipitable Water Product”.  Emily was an REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) student at Colorado State University during the summer of 2021 and worked with CIRA scientists Jack Dostalek and Louie Grasso on a method for measuring low-level water vapor from GOES ABI imagery.  Earlier in the year the AMS presented Emily with an “Outstanding Student Conference Poster” award for the same work.  (POC: Jack Dostalek and Louie Grasso, CIRA, Jack.Dostalek@colostate.edu, (970) 491-8326; lewis.grasso@colostate.edu , (970) 491-8380) Funding: GOES-R
