Research Interests
My name is Noah Brauer and I reside in the Denver area. Previously, my research focused on precipitation microphysics in tropical cyclones using ground radar, space-borne radar, and disdrometer retrievals to better understand the spatial and temporal variability in tropical cyclone precipitation. This involved deploying to 6 landfalling hurricanes throughout the southeastern United States to collect precipitation and wind speed measurements to better quantify precipitation processes. Currently, I serve as an associate editor for the Journal of Hydrometeorology. Before attending graduate school, I worked in the private sector testing meteorological software, configuring customer systems, and traveling to customer sites to provide installation and software training support. Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, hiking, playing soccer, baseball, homebrewing, and spending time with my two cats Julio and Hadley.
Current Research
I am working on a Joint Technology Transfer Initiative (JTTI) project within NOAA and the Weather Prediction Center to transition research into forecast operations for National Weather Service forecasters. Specifically, I am working on a sub-hourly preciptation object tracker to quantify probabilistic precipitation estimation and regions of heavy precipitation on a sub-hourly scale for the CONUS.
