Drew Shindell

Drew Shindell is an ozone specialist and climatologist at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. His research is concerned with global climate change, climate variability, and atmospheric chemistry. He uses climate models to investigate chemical changes such as the depletion of the ozone layer, climate changes such as global warming, and the connections between these two.

Research interests

  • Long-term changes in climate and climate variability patterns
  • Chemistry and climate response to solar variation
  • Stratospheric ozone response to increasing greenhouse gases
  • Tropospheric ozone response to changing greenhouse gas and ozone precursor emissions
  • The impact of ozone changes on surface ultraviolet radiation
