Emilie Vanvyve graduated in physics from the Université catholique de Louvain (UCL), Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, in 2001. She pursued her interest in climate-related phenomena with a MS in atmospheric sciences (Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics Georges Lemaître—now Georges Lemaître Centre for Earth and Climate Research (TECLIM), UCL, 2002) focussing on regional climate modeling and impacts of climate change on extreme events in Belgium. While obtaining her PhD in atmospheric sciences (TECLIM, UCL, 2007), she also qualified as a school teacher of sciences and mathematics (UCL, 2003). Her PhD work focussed on the regional climate modeling of land-atmosphere interactions over West Africa. Until she joined NCAR in 2010, Emilie worked as a scientific consultant at Cambridge Environmental Research Consultants in Cambridge, United Kingdom, a company specializing in environmental software and services (flagship software: ADMS series for industrial, urban and airport air quality management). Emilie's area of expertise encompasses regional climate modeling (climate downscaling), land-atmosphere interactions, climate change, wind energy, and air quality.
