Julienne Stroeve

Julienne C. Stroeve received a PhD in geography from the University of Colorado Boulder, in 1996, for her work in understanding Greenland climate variability. Subsequently she has been a research scientist at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) within the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES). Her Arctic research interests include atmosphere-sea ice interactions, sea ice predictability, climate change and associated impacts. She has conducted several Arctic field campaigns. Recent research is focused on understanding rapid Arctic change and what this will mean for the rest of the planet. Dr. Stroeve’s work has been featured in numerous magazines, news reports, radio shows, and TV documentaries (Weather Channel, History Channel, Science Discovery). She has given keynote addresses around the world on Arctic climate issues and briefed former Vice President Al Gore and congressional staff. Dr. Stroeve has published more than 60 articles on peer-reviewed journals and contributed to several national and international reports on climate change and has been listed two years in a row as one of the most influential scientific minds by Thomson Reuters (2014 and 2015).
