About Emily

Emily Gordon is a climate physicist whose academic journey began at the University of Otago, where she earned a BSc in Physics and Electronics in 2017, a BSc (Hons) First Class in Physics in 2018, and an MSc in Physics in 2020. Her master's thesis, titled 'Observational Evidence for the Modulation of Antarctic Springtime Ozone Depletion by Energetic Particle Precipitation,' was conducted within the Department of Physics, focusing on the impacts of energetic particle precipitation on stratospheric chemistry. During her studies at Otago, she contributed to the Space Physics Group and Atmosphere and Climate Group, participated in Antarctic expeditions to Scott Base in 2019 alongside Dr. James Brundell to maintain scientific equipment, and served as a Sir Peter Blake Ambassador in 2018, collaborating with NIWA on remote sensing and data analysis techniques at Lauder and Baring Head. In 2020, she received the Fulbright Science and Innovation Graduate Award, enabling her to pursue a PhD in Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University, from which she graduated with research on climate predictability.
