I have been privileged to know several Black atmospheric/climate scientists over the duration of my career. They might not all remember me, but I met all of these people at one time (pre-covid, pre-twitter): https://twitter.com/BlkinGeoscience/status/1303398058605113346
George Philander, now emeritus professor at @GeosciencesPU, is known for his work on El Nino/La Nina, and more recently paleo-climate: https://geosciences.princeton.edu/people/samuel-g-philander
Warren Washington was one of the leading scientists at NCAR when I was but a lowly postdoc there: https://staff.ucar.edu/users/wmw
Michael Morgan was a grad student and TA at MIT when I was a visiting student there: https://www.aos.wisc.edu/faculty/Morgan/
Marilyn Raphael, now director of the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA, is a climate scientist whom I first met when we overlapped at NCAR and again at UCLA: https://www.ioes.ucla.edu/person/marilyn-raphael/
Samson Hagos studies cloud processes and their role in climate, and we met through @USCLIVAR process study activities: https://www.pnnl.gov/science/staff/staff_info.asp?staff_num=7433
LaToya Myles is an atmospheric scientist at NOAA air resources laboratory, and an co-PI of the NSF hearts of GOLD project: https://www.noaa.gov/education/our-people/latoya-myles https://cpaess.ucar.edu/gold/hearts-gold-project
So there are Black atmospheric/climate senior scientists out there - let's celebrate them and raise their visibility! #BlackinGeoscienceWeek #BlackInAtmosphere
