RESEARCH ASSOCIATE

Gabi Collao-Barrios is a postdoc at NSIDC. Her research focuses on two different aspects of the cryosphere. One is investigating the main processes involved in the snowpack spatial and temporal evolution in the Rocky Mountains, using field data (NASA SnowEX data) and modeling (SnowModel). The other is analyzing ice flow changes in the western Antarctic ice shelves, using satellite data (GO_LIVE project and collaboration with TARSAN Thwaites Glacier Project).
