Edwin Gerber

About

Edwin Gerber is a Professor of Mathematics and Atmosphere/Ocean Science at NYU's Courant Institute. His research focuses on understanding natural atmospheric variability and its implications for climate response to anthropogenic forcing, using idealized models to bridge theory and comprehensive simulations. He is particularly interested in the role of the upper atmosphere in surface climate.
