Marilyn Raphael
Marilyn N. Raphael is a Trinidadian climatologist, best known for her work on climate change and variability in the high latitude southern hemisphere. She is a professor and former chair of the Department of Geography at UCLA.[1][2]
Early life and education
Raphael was born and grew up in Trinidad and Tobago. She obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Geography from McMaster University in 1984,[3] and a Master of Arts and PhD (1990) from Ohio State University.[1]
Career
Raphael's research interests are global climate change and variability, specifically climate dynamics in the middle and high latitude of the Southern Hemisphere and the interaction between Antarctic sea ice and the atmosphere.[1][4] Her research uses global climate models and also large-scale observational databases.[5]
Raphael is a professor in the Department of Geography at UCLA and was chair of the department between 2010 and 2013.
Her co-authored book, The Encyclopedia of Weather and Climate Change: A Complete Visual Guide, received an Atmospheric Science Librarians International Choice Award in 2010.[6][7]
