Brandon is a Master’s student in the school of Earth and Ocean Sciences at the University of Victoria. Under the supervision of Dr. Colin Goldblatt, he is studying the climate-state dependence of cloud radiative feedbacks using the Community Earth System Model. His work will benefit the endeavors of climate science in providing insight to deep paleoclimate problems such as the Faint Young Sun Paradox. Brandon received his Bachelor of Science from The Pennsylvania State University in meteorology and atmospheric sciences, with a minor in astrophysics, and hopes to eventually apply his studies of planetary climate to worlds beyond Earth.
