Research summary
AI-generated

Paul B Goddard studies the Earth's climate system, with a focus on how the atmosphere, oceans, and polar ice sheets respond to warming and to proposed climate-intervention techniques. Recent work examines geoengineering approaches such as stratospheric aerosol injection (adding reflective particles to the upper atmosphere) and marine cloud brightening, along with atmospheric rivers, ocean circulation, and Antarctic ice dynamics. The research increasingly uses machine-learning tools to emulate weather and study climate feedbacks.

Publication activity has been uneven, with a sharp peak around 2022-2023 (partly from released data and code archives) followed by fewer outputs, and a modest uptick in 2026.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
