Robert Corell is a Senior Fellow in the Atmospheric Policy Program of the American Meteorological Society (AMS). Prior to these appointments in January 2000, he was Assistant Director for Geosciences at the National Science Foundation (NSF) where for over twelve years he had oversight for the Atmospheric, Earth, and Ocean Sciences and the Global Change programs of the NSF. While at the NSF, Corell served as the Chair of the National Science and Technology Council's committee that has oversight of the U.S. Global Change Research Program. He served as chair and principal U.S. delegate to many international bodies with interests in and responsibilities for climate and global change research programs. Corell is currently actively engaged in research concerned both with the sciences of global change and with the interface between science and public policy. His current research interests involve studies of methods and models of vulnerability research, analysis, and assessments and a focused study of vulnerabilities of Arctic communities to climate variability and change, including increases in UV. Further, he is an active participant in the Initiative for Science and Technology for Sustainability. His work at the AMS Policy Program concerns climate variability and change, particularly the intersections between science and public policy. He was the chair that established the U.S. National Assessment of the Consequences of Climate Variability and Change and served on the committee that published the reports in fall 2000. He currently serves as the Chair of the steering committee for the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment, which is an international assessment of the impacts of climate variability, change, and ultraviolet radiation increases in the Arctic region. Prior to joining the NSF in 1987, he was a Professor and academic administrator at the University of New Hampshire. Corell is an oceanographer and engineer by background and training, having received his Ph.D., M.S. and B.S. degrees at the Case Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and having held appointments at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and the University of Washington.
