ONEONTA, N.Y. -- Dr. Todd Ellis, Assistant Professor of Meteorology in the Earth Sciences Department at the SUNY College at Oneonta, has been awarded a three-year $70,875 subcontract from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration through Colorado State University for a project entitled "CloudSat." CloudSat is a satellite that uses radar to study clouds and precipitation from space.
Dr. Ellis' project will involve working with teachers and students on the CloudSat Education Network, which is part of the educational and public-outreach program of the NASA CloudSat satellite. Through the network, educational institutions provide data to CloudSat scientists for their research, and students have opportunities for hands-on participation in research.
Dr. Ellis joined the SUNY Oneonta faculty in 2008. He holds a doctorate
in atmospheric science from Colorado State University, where he worked
previously as a research assistant.
